FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball courts?

While designed primarily for hardwood, the durable materials hold up well, but frequent outdoor use may accelerate wear on the outsole traction.

How do I clean the white mesh accents?

Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soapy water, taking care to scrub gently to avoid fraying the mesh fibers.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size, but the bootie construction provides a snug fit that may feel tight for users with wider feet.

What is the primary material used in the construction?

The upper is constructed using a mix of premium leather, molded overlays, and breathable mesh.

What benefits does the carbon fiber heel cup offer?

The carbon fiber heel cup increases torsional rigidity and stability, helping to lock the foot in place during intense physical activity.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness around the midfoot

Loosen the laces across the bridge of the foot to allow the neoprene bootie to expand slightly before re-tightening.

Outer sole traction feels slippery

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and maintain maximum grip on indoor surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High energy return for explosive movements
  • Excellent lockdown and stability
  • Breathable mesh accents prevent overheating
  • Distinctive and modern aesthetic
  • Durable carbon fiber support

Cons

  • Light colorway is prone to showing dirt
  • Requires break-in time for the leather overlays
  • Fit may feel restrictive to those with wider feet

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify your sizing; as these feature a secure bootie, a precise fit is essential. When lacing, ensure the molded overlays sit flat against your instep to maximize lockdown. For care, avoid machine washing the leather and mesh components. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp microfiber cloth after use to prevent court debris from staining the white mesh. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or stiffening.
