FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball designs, these are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for high-intensity or competitive basketball play.
How do I clean the synthetic leather upper?
Simply wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a gentle, non-abrasive household cleaner can be used.
Is the EVA sockliner removable?
Most models feature a standard liner; however, for the best comfort, it is recommended to keep the provided sockliner inside.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The synthetic leather provides some protection against light moisture, but they are not waterproof.
What is the primary benefit of the mid-top design?
The mid-top design provides a classic vintage aesthetic and adds a sense of support around the ankle area compared to low-cut trainers.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole loses traction over time
Clean the bottom of the rubber cupsole with mild soap and water to remove debris and restore grip.
Discomfort or pinching at the ankle
Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly at the top eyelets and consider using a thinner sock.
Creasing on the synthetic leather
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize permanent crease depth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Hoops 3.0 Mid trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple maintenance steps:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the synthetic leather upper. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural integrity of the cupsole.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the synthetic materials.
- Fit: These trainers follow a regular fit. It is recommended to use the lace closure to adjust the tension across the midfoot for a secure lockdown.
- Storage: Keep them in a well-ventilated area to maintain freshness and prevent moisture buildup inside the textile lining.
