FAQs

What is the primary material used in the Kobe 8?

The upper is made with engineered mesh, and the outsole is made of rubber.

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?

While the shoes can handle some outdoor use, they are best suited for indoor court play to maximize the lifespan of the soles.

How should I clean the shoes?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing.

What kind of support do these shoes offer?

The low-top design prioritizes mobility and court feel. They provide a secure fit with a hard plastic heel for support, but may not offer the same ankle support as high-tops.

How do the sizes run?

Sizes are based on the standard Nike older kids' sizing chart. It's recommended to measure the child's feet for the most accurate fit.

Where is the herringbone traction located?

It is located on the forefoot and side of the heel, providing grip during quick movements.

What kind of midsole foam is used?

Nike's super-responsive foam technology is used to provide energy return.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Check the lacing and ensure the laces are not over-tightened. Consider loosening the laces or trying a half-size larger if the issue persists.

Poor grip on the court.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free of dust and debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth if necessary.

Discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider using athletic socks for added comfort and support.
