FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for tennis?
While similar in construction, these are specifically engineered for the lateral demands of padel and may not offer the ideal performance profile for traditional tennis courts.
How do I determine my size?
ASICS generally follows standard sizing; we recommend selecting your usual athletic shoe size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and cushioning properties. Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior.
How often should I replace my padel shoes?
Depending on usage frequency, replace them every 6-12 months, or sooner if the tread pattern becomes significantly worn down.
Do these shoes come in different colors?
Yes, the series includes various colorways like green, though availability depends on the specific retailer and stock levels.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Re-tighten the laces using the 'runner's loop' method to better secure the heel.
Reduced traction on court
Clean the outsole of dust and debris buildup using a firm-bristled brush.
Heel discomfort during play
Ensure the insole is properly seated and try using a thinner or thicker pair of athletic socks to adjust the internal volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Gel-dedicate 9 shoes, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard adult sizing. Ensure a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal performance.
- Break-in: Wear them for a few light practice sessions before using them in a competitive match to allow the materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe the outsole clean with a dry brush after every game to maintain traction. For the upper, use a damp cloth with mild soap; do not submerge in water or use harsh detergents.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the synthetic materials.
