Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Wear appropriate running socks. Break them in gradually over a few shorter runs.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL cushioning naturally compresses with use. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after 300-500 miles or when you notice a significant decrease in comfort and support.
Traction issues
Ensure the outsole is clean from dirt and debris. The outsole's grip may diminish on very wet or icy surfaces; exercise caution in such conditions.
Upper feels too warm
The mesh upper provides ventilation, but in extremely hot conditions, ensure socks are moisture-wicking. Keep the shoes clean as dirt can impede airflow.
