FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Nike Hyperdunk X EP generally follows standard sizing for adult male athletic footwear.
Can I use these for outdoor basketball?
While durable, they are optimized for indoor court play. Outdoor use will cause the tread pattern to wear down significantly faster.
How do I maintain the color brightness?
Keep the black and white upper clean by wiping away mud or dust immediately after use.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The design includes a supportive midfoot shank that provides a stable base for the arch during intense physical movement.
How long is the break-in period?
Most users find that the shoe feels significantly more comfortable after 3 to 5 sessions of court play.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight in the midfoot
Adjust the lacing pattern to be more loose across the bridge of the foot or consider using a thinner performance sock.
Slipping on the court surface
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth or a sticky pad to remove dust buildup, which is the most common cause of traction loss.
Heel slippage
Utilize the top eyelets of the shoe to perform a runner's loop (heel lock) to secure the ankle more firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Nike Hyperdunk X EP, start by loosening the laces fully before sliding your foot in to avoid stressing the heel collar. Because these are performance shoes, it is best to wear them exclusively for training or matches to prevent premature tread wear from concrete surfaces. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush with warm water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the integrity of the cushioning units. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight.
