Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for tennis hard courts?
These trainers are specifically designed with Michelin Padel technology for sand and artificial grass, so they may not provide optimal grip or durability on abrasive hard courts.
How should I clean my Babolat Jet Viva trainers?
Clean them by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging them in water or using a washing machine, as this can damage the structural integrity.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The included Ortholite insole offers ergonomic comfort, but players with specific orthotic needs can easily remove the stock insole to insert their own.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Babolat Jet Viva typically fits true to standard UK sizes, but the mesh structure provides a snug, secure fit suitable for high-performance play.
What is the purpose of the KPRS-X system?
KPRS-X is an EVA foam insert specifically placed under the heel to absorb shock, protecting the player's joints during heavy landings and repetitive impact movements.
Troubleshooting
Loss of traction on the court
Clean the outsole with a soft brush to remove accumulated sand, clay, or debris lodged in the tread patterns.
Insole becomes damp or develops odor
Remove the insole after each use and let it dry separately; replace with high-quality aftermarket performance insoles if necessary.
Upper material showing minor scuffing
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner safe for synthetic mesh materials and gently dab the area; avoid harsh scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the mesh upper is designed to wrap the foot securely. To maintain your trainers, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove court dust. After play, remove the insoles to allow the interior to air out, which preserves the life of the Ortholite material. Always store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the rubber outsole and bonding adhesives.
