FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are primarily designed for court sports like tennis, which involve lateral movement. They are not intended for long-distance road running.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The Courtjam Control 3 has a regular fit. If you typically wear a specific size in adidas trainers, you should find these consistent with that sizing.
Can I use these on clay courts?
Yes, the Adiwear outsole provides excellent grip on most court surfaces, including clay.
What is the benefit of the Torsion System?
The Torsion System allows for independent movement between the heel and the forefoot, improving stability during lateral cutting and turns.
How sustainable are these trainers?
These shoes are manufactured using at least 20% recycled materials as part of a commitment to reduce plastic waste.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness around the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension by skipping the eyelet nearest to the point of discomfort.
Loss of traction on the court
Check the outsole for compacted dirt or dust buildup and clean the treads with a bristled brush.
Shoe feels stiff out of the box
Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the materials to break in naturally before high-intensity use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, tighten the laces securely to leverage the built-in locked-in fit. If you prefer your own orthotic insoles, the factory insoles are removable to accommodate different arch supports. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural adhesives. Instead, wipe the upper mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the outsole accumulates dust or clay, use a stiff brush to clear the tread, which will maintain the integrity of the Adiwear grip. Always air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the cushioning foam.
