Shoe Fitting
Rest assured that your shoe and custom insole will fit and perform better after they have
been broken-in. How long it takes depends on you and how often you wear them, remember your feet will need time to get
used to the new position that the 3D Fit System is encouraging.
During the break-In period we recommend an incremental
approach to your activity, don't try and run 45 miles in the first week, don't play 36 six holes on the first day,
don't play a 5 set game etc. Slowly ease back into your normal training/sporting programme, if you experience reddening
or blisters reduce the intensity. As our Comfort Pledge informs - should problems develop we will endeavour adjust or
refit them at no extra charge.

Note: If you have purchased running shoes for the purpose of running, use them for running only; if you walk or play any other activity in them different areas of the sole will wear affecting its primary function - running.
Break-in Guidelines

to the new position that the 3D Fit System is encouraging.

irst week, don't play 36 holes on the first day, don't play a 5 set game etc. Slowly ease back into your normal
training/sporting programme, and if you experience reddening or blisters reduce the intensity.

Foot care and shoe tips
- Wash your feet daily rinsing off all soap and drying thoroughly, especially between the toes.
- Keep your toe nails trimmed straight across and not too short. Do not dig into the corners.
- Do not trim, shave or use over-the-counter medicines to dissolve corns or calluses - use a Chiropodist.
- Only wear clean 'sport specific' technical socks that fit.
- Lace your shoes properly. (See guide above).
- Replace running shoes between 350 - 500 miles, depending on your weight, running style and running surface.
- Do not clean your shoes or insoles in a washing machine; do not dry your shoes or insoles in a drying machine.
- Running shoes should be cleaned using a soft brush, warm water and soap, rinsed thoroughly and dried slowly. (Do not immerse your shoes in water).
- Insoles can be removed and washed with soap and luke warm water, wipe and leave to dry at room temp.
- You can spoil the function of your footwear if misused i.e. only run in your running shoes do not use them for casual wear.
