Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The ASICS GEL-CHALLENGER 15 CLAY trainers come ready to wear. Ensure they are laced securely but not too tightly to allow for natural foot movement. The secure fit provided by the supportive upper and thicker collar should be comfortable without requiring a break-in period for most users.
Compatibility: These trainers are specifically designed for clay tennis courts. While they offer excellent traction on this surface, their performance may vary on hard courts or grass.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your shoes:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and clay. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Outsole Care: Regularly check the outsole for any embedded debris that might affect traction.
