FAQs
What does "EP" stand for in the shoe name?

What materials are used in the Nike Book 1 EP Mirage?
The upper is constructed with a combination of leather and woven textile panels, featuring micro-perforated suede on the heel collar for added texture and comfort.

Is this shoe suitable for outdoor courts?
While the shoe is durable, it is primarily designed for indoor court performance. Extended use on abrasive outdoor courts may reduce the lifespan of the outsole and cushioning.

Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing pattern. Try a runner's loop for a tighter fit or a standard criss-cross for more flexibility. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.
Squeaking sound during movement
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try lacing them slightly differently or ensure all parts of the shoe are clean and dry. If it persists, it might be an internal fit issue.
Reduced traction on court
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth before playing. If the shoe is heavily worn, traction may naturally diminish.
Discomfort in the heel area
The micro-perforated suede heel collar is designed for a snug fit. Ensure the laces are tied properly to secure the heel. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear times.
