WHAT TYPE OF RUNNER IS THIS SHOE BEST FOR?

WHAT ACTIVITIES CAN I USE IT FOR?

WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO MAKE SURE IT FITS?
Measure your feet at the end of the day when they’re at their largest. Leave about a thumb’s width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel comfortably snug. Try them on with your usual running socks, and if you’re between sizes, consider sizing up half a size for maximum comfort.
