FAQs

What does 'EP' stand for in Nike shoes?

EP stands for Engineered Performance. This version is typically built with a wider base and more room in the forefoot to better accommodate players, especially in Asian markets, but is now available globally.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Nike KD 17 EP offers excellent cushioning, they are specifically designed for the multidirectional movements and impact of basketball. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the shattered glass graphic?

Clean the graphic gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid scrubbing or using abrasive materials that could damage the design.

What is the main color of the Nike KD 17 "Christmas"?

The main color is Aquarius Blue, complemented by silver accents and a shattered glass graphic.

Is this a limited edition release?

Yes, the "Christmas" edition is a special release, and availability may be limited, especially after the initial launch period.

What is the warranty on these trainers?

Nike typically offers a limited warranty on its footwear against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Nike website or your retailer for specific warranty details applicable in your region.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

These trainers are designed for court use and are not waterproof. Wearing them in wet conditions may affect traction and could potentially damage the materials over time.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, consider trying the EP (Engineered Performance) version, which often offers a slightly wider fit. Breaking them in with consistent wear can also help.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The Zoom Air unit is designed for longevity, but its responsiveness can diminish with excessive wear. Ensure the shoe is properly laced for optimal support. For persistent issues, consider replacing the shoes if they have seen extensive use.

Traction is slipping on court

Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris that may be hindering grip. Ensure the court surface is also clean.

Color bleeding or fading

Avoid washing the shoes in a machine or exposing them to harsh detergents or prolonged direct sunlight. Clean gently with mild soap and cold water, and air dry away from heat.

  • Durable materials ensure longevity.
  • Wider fit (EP version) suitable for a broader range of foot shapes.

Cons

  • Limited edition, potentially difficult to find.
  • Higher price point typical of special releases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers come ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal performance and comfort. The EP (Engineered Performance) version is designed with a wider base to accommodate more foot shapes.

Compatibility: The Nike KD 17 EP is primarily designed for indoor and outdoor basketball courts. While comfortable for general athletic activities, their specialized design is best suited for the demands of the sport.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to clean the exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
