FAQs

How do I clean my Nike Kobe IX Elite Low EM Protro shoes?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the uppers and soles. Avoid using harsh chemicals or placing them in a washing machine.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

It is recommended to wear athletic socks that provide adequate cushioning and support. Choose socks that fit well and don't bunch up inside the shoe.

Can I wear these shoes outdoors?

Yes, these shoes are suitable for outdoor use. However, wear and tear may be accelerated compared to indoor use. Regular cleaning is recommended.

What is the lifespan of the cushioning?

The lifespan of the React foam cushioning depends on usage. With regular use, the cushioning can last for several months, but it may diminish over time. Monitor for compression and reduced impact protection.

Are these shoes true to size?

Sizing can vary. It's recommended to try the shoes on or consult the size chart, considering the Flyknit construction and individual foot shape for the best fit.

How should I store these shoes?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Nike offers a warranty against manufacturing defects. Check the Nike website or the product packaging for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces or wearing thinner socks. If the problem persists, consider going up half a size.

Poor traction on the court.

Make sure the outsole is clean. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris. If the problem persists, the soles may be worn and require replacement.

The Flyknit upper is fraying.

Trim any loose threads carefully with small scissors. Avoid pulling on the threads. Minor fraying is normal with wear and tear.

Cushioning feels flat.

The React foam may be compressed with use. Consider replacing the sockliner or the shoes if the cushioning significantly diminishes.
