Bug in list of shoes

[dethier1958]

When I added my new Saucony Endorphine Speed 3 to my list of shoes, Strava makes the s lower case. I have tried numerous different tricks to get it to make that letter upper case as it should be, but it always winds up going back to lower case!

For example, I tried renaming the shoe Endorphine PSpeed 3. That stays upper case. But when I remove the P the s goes to lower case. When I added a second space before Speed, then it worked. This does not happen with any of my other shoes.

It seems as if Strava has a list of shoe names that it tries to match and the Endorphine Speed 3 is typed with a lower case 's' in that list. The double space didn't match anything so it kept my spelling. If this is the case, that is a feature that should be removed. Just use what I type in.

This issue has persisted, and I noticed that previous feedback has been archived. Why? This is clearly a bug! For example, the shoes name "Vaporfly 3 Volt" changes to "VaporFly 3 Volt" after saving, and "Novablast 3" changes to "NovaBlast 3". These are the official standard names. Please do not arbitrarily change the letters to uppercase!

It should take about a minute for someone to correct that entry in the database. Surely you can do that.

Hello @dethier1958 

Thanks for posting about this.  When you enter shoes in the system, the capitalization and formatting will revert to the formatting in our database. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to adjust this at this point in time.

Sorry for the confusion!
