I retired my first pair of shoes on Garmin Connect on January 18 with 911.8 of a maximum 1000 KM. On the same day, I created a new pair of shoes, and set them as the default for running activities. This is working fine: the new pair is assigned to new activities, and I can see the shoes and their mileage on the full Gear page (/modern/gear).
However, on the dashboard (/modern/dashboard/#######) in the Gear widget, I still see the old, retired shoes - beneath the name it says "Retired on 2015 Jan 18", the mileage gauge is grey (at 911.8 / 1000 KM), and, as far as I can tell, there is no way to change this to display the new shoes instead.
Am I missing something? Or is there really no way to change which gear is displayed in the widget on the dashboard?
