These shoes are designed for indoor and outdoor court surfaces.

How should I store my shoes?

Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their quality.

Are the Kobe IX Elite Low EM Protro true to size?

Nike shoes generally run true to size, but it's always best to check the size chart and read customer reviews for specific fit advice.

What is the lifespan of the cushioning?

The lifespan of the cushioning depends on usage and the intensity of play. Frequent use may cause it to compress over time.

Can I use these shoes for running?

What is the purpose of the Flywire cables?

The Flywire cables provide a secure and customized fit at the midfoot when you lace up, enhancing support and lockdown.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight.

Loosen the laces and adjust the Flywire cables for a more comfortable fit. Consider going up half a size.

Traction feels inadequate.

Ensure the outsole is clean. Try the shoes on different court surfaces to assess traction.
