FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
While the outsole is designed for wear resistance, these trainers are optimized for indoor court use. Extended outdoor play may accelerate wear and tear.
What does 'Move to Zero' mean for these shoes?
'Move to Zero' is Nike's journey towards zero carbon and zero waste. These shoes contribute by using at least 25% recycled material in their construction.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to Nike's official size guide for accurate measurement. Ensure you measure your foot length correctly for the best fit, as shoe sizing can vary slightly.
Can these trainers be washed in a machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for care.
What is the primary benefit of the Crater Foam midsole?
The Crater Foam midsole provides responsive cushioning, helping to absorb impact and offer energy return during athletic movements.
How does the 'Ghost' variant differ from other Cosmic Unity models?
The 'Ghost' variant typically refers to specific colorways, often featuring a predominantly black design with distinct accents like the marbled blue Swoosh in this case.
Troubleshooting
Slipping during play
Ensure the court surface is clean and dry. Check the outsole for any embedded debris and clean it. If the issue persists, the traction may be reduced due to wear.
Cushioning feels too firm initially
The Crater Foam midsole may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially and gradually increase duration to allow them to mold to your feet.
Laces becoming untied
Try double-knotting the woven laces. Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets for optimal lockdown.
Discoloration on the marbled Swoosh
The marbled effect is a design feature and may naturally show variations. Avoid excessive rubbing with abrasive materials.
