FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
The Dame 9 is designed primarily for indoor court performance. Using them on outdoor asphalt will cause the outsole to wear down significantly faster.
Do I need to break these in?
Yes, like most performance basketball shoes, the Dame 9 may feel stiff initially. Wearing them for a few light practice sessions will allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
What is the best way to clean the Blue and White material?
Spot clean with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid bleach and avoid scrubbing the mesh components too aggressively.
Are these shoes true to size?
The Dame 9 generally fits true to standard athletic sizing, though individual foot width may vary.
Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the provided insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Tighten the laces through the upper eyelets to secure the midfoot lock.
Excessive scuffing on the upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner for synthetic materials, avoiding harsh abrasive brushes.
Loss of traction on court
Wipe the outsoles with a damp towel to remove dust and debris buildup which often causes slipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your adidas Dame 9 trainers, ensure the lacing system is adjusted to your preferred tension before each session to maximize the lockdown effect. These trainers are specifically sized for adult feet; it is recommended to wear thin-to-medium athletic socks to maintain the intended fit.
For care, avoid using these shoes on abrasive outdoor concrete surfaces, as the outsole tread is optimized for indoor basketball courts. Clean the exterior by wiping with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Never submerge the shoes in water or put them in a dryer, as high heat can compromise the structural integrity of the supportive materials and adhesives.
