Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
These trainers are primarily designed for indoor court performance. Extended use on rough outdoor surfaces may reduce their lifespan and performance.
How do I clean the pink and white material?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For the midsole and outsole, a damp cloth is usually sufficient.
What is the main difference between the AR1 and AR2 models?
The AR2 builds upon the AR1 with enhanced cushioning, superior stability, and improved traction, reflecting advancements in Rigorer's performance technology.
What does 'Valentine's Day' colorway refer to?
This refers to a specific limited-edition color scheme featuring pink and white, inspired by the theme of Valentine's Day, similar to a previous release on the AR1 model.
What size should I order if I'm between UK sizes?
Given the performance-oriented fit, if you are between sizes, it is often recommended to try the larger size for more comfort, especially if you prefer wearing thicker socks.
Can these shoes be used for other sports?
While they offer excellent grip and support, they are specifically engineered for the demands of basketball. For other sports, using footwear designed for those specific activities is recommended.
What is the warranty on these trainers?
Please refer to the retailer's warranty policy for specific details, as warranty information is typically provided at the point of sale.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.
Traction is reduced on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Periodically clean the shoes according to care instructions.
Cushioning feels flat after extended use
Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities outside of basketball, which can accelerate wear on the cushioning system. Allow shoes to rest between uses.
