FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for daily training?

While the Alphafly NEXT% offers excellent cushioning, they are primarily designed for racing and performance runs. For high-mileage daily training, a more robust trainer might offer better durability and support.

How do I measure my foot for the correct size?

Stand on a piece of paper with your heel against a wall. Mark the longest point of your foot (usually the tip of your big toe). Measure the distance from the wall to the mark in centimeters. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart provided.

What is the difference between CM and EU sizing?

CM refers to the length of your foot in centimeters, while EU is the European shoe sizing system. The product details often include a conversion chart. It is recommended to order based on your usual EU size for the most accurate fit.

Can these shoes be used in wet conditions?

The shoes offer decent traction on wet surfaces, but excessive water can affect performance and take time to dry. They are not waterproof.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan depends heavily on usage frequency, mileage, running style, and surface. For racing shoes with advanced foams, mileage might be lower than traditional trainers, often ranging from 100-300 miles for optimal performance.

Are the 'Rawdacious' colorways different in performance?

Colorways typically do not affect the performance or technology of the shoe. The 'Rawdacious' refers to a specific aesthetic theme.

Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the adhesives, foam, and upper materials. Hand clean with mild soap and water instead.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or too loose

Refer to the detailed sizing chart and measuring instructions. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately. If between sizes, consider the 0.5cm variation or try a half-size up for more room.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

This can be a natural sign of wear. Ensure the shoes are clean and that the foam has not been excessively compressed by improper storage or use.

Upper material feels restrictive

The Flyknit upper is designed to be adaptive. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly, not overtightened, allowing the material to flex with your foot. Wear them for shorter periods initially to break them in.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional energy return and responsiveness for faster running.
  • Lightweight and highly cushioned for long-distance comfort.
  • Breathable and adaptive Flyknit upper provides a secure fit.
  • Propulsive feel due to the carbon fiber plate.

Cons

  • High price point may be a barrier for some runners.
  • Specialized design is best suited for racing and performance, not casual wear.
  • Durability may be a concern for very high mileage training compared to more robust trainers.
  • Fit can be very snug, requiring precise sizing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
  • Usage: While designed for performance, prolonged use on abrasive surfaces or for non-running activities can accelerate wear.
