FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for professional basketball games?

The ANTA Kai 1 'Triple Black' trainers are designed with basketball performance in mind, offering support and a secure fit. However, suitability for professional games may depend on league regulations and individual player preferences for specific shoe technologies.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The minimalist upper is primarily crafted from lightweight synthetic material.

How do I clean the silver shield motif on the tongue?

Gently wipe the silver shield motif with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture to preserve the metallic finish.

What does the '11' on the forefoot represent?

The small silver '11' on the forefoot represents Kyrie Irving's jersey number.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces can typically be replaced like those on standard trainers. Ensure you use laces of a similar length and thickness for optimal function with the dual closure system.

What sizes are available?

These trainers are available in various adult men's UK sizes. Please refer to the product listing for the specific size range offered.

Is this trainer waterproof?

No, the trainers are made from synthetic materials and are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and are suitable for dry conditions or indoor athletic activities. Protect them from heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Fit feels too tight or loose

Adjust the tightness of the laces and the forefoot strap. Ensure the strap is secured firmly but not uncomfortably tight. If the issue persists, consider if this size is the correct fit for your foot shape.

Strap is difficult to fasten

Ensure the strap is aligned correctly before attempting to fasten. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the closure mechanism. If the strap seems damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.

Material creasing excessively

Some creasing is natural with synthetic materials during use. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and avoid overly tight lacing. Store the shoes with a shoe tree or stuffing to maintain their shape when not worn.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general athletic use, primarily basketball, and lifestyle wear. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
