Troubleshooting
My feet feel uncomfortable or rubbed during play.
Ensure proper lacing; an overly tight or loose fit can cause discomfort. A break-in period may be required for new leather shoes. Try different lacing techniques or adjust sock thickness to improve comfort and fit.
The shoes feel slippery on the court.
Regularly clean the rubber sole to remove any accumulated dust, dirt, or debris, which can reduce traction. A clean sole provides optimal grip. Always ensure the court surface is dry and free of foreign substances.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Adidas Dame 9 sneakers:
- Cleaning Leather Uppers: Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water) to gently wipe down the leather surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue, then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Cleaning Neoprene Boot: For the internal neoprene boot, a damp cloth can be used to wipe away dirt. Allow to air dry completely.
- Cleaning Rubber Sole: Use a soft brush or old toothbrush with water and mild soap to scrub away dirt and debris from the sole and tread. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers. Do not machine wash or put them in a dryer, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
