FAQs
Is the 1080v15 suitable for speed work?
While highly comfortable for daily runs, the 1080v15 is optimized for comfort rather than speed, making it less ideal for high-intensity interval training.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the foam and adhesive. Use a damp cloth for surface cleaning instead.
What material is used for the upper?
This specific variant uses high-quality, breathable polyester designed for comfort and durability.
Does the 1080v15 provide arch support?
The shoe provides a neutral platform that offers stable cushioning suitable for many arch types, though it is not a dedicated stability shoe.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of your use and the surface you run on.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long runs
Ensure you are using the correct size and consider trying a different lacing technique to adjust pressure distribution across the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 1080v15 trainers last as long as possible, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing your standard running socks when trying on the shoes to account for foot swelling. To clean, wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying as this can damage the cushioning compounds. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping or degrading.
