FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While designed for performance, the rubber outsole is optimized for indoor surfaces. Extended outdoor use on abrasive concrete may wear down the tread faster.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging the shoes in water.
Do I need to size up?
The Kyrie Infinity generally fits true to size, but the secure Flywire fit can feel snug. If you prefer more room, you might consider trying a half-size larger.
What is the benefit of the Zoom Strobel?
The Zoom Strobel provides a direct, responsive feel underfoot, helping to reduce impact on joints while providing immediate energy return.
Can I use custom orthotics with these?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to swap in your preferred orthopedic inserts if needed.
What does the mid-top profile offer?
The mid-top design provides enhanced ankle stability and support without sacrificing the range of motion required for quick movements.
Troubleshooting
Feeling too tight around the midfoot
Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to adjust the tension of the internal Flywire system.
Slippage on the court
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and restore grip.
Heel discomfort during initial wear
Ensure your socks are thick enough to prevent friction and tighten the collar area specifically to lock the heel in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Kyrie Infinity shoes last through the season, start by adjusting the lacing system to distribute tension evenly across your arch using the Flywire eyelets. Before full-game use, wear them for light drills to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape. Regarding care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and court debris from the outsole after each session to maintain traction. If the leather upper gets dirty, wipe it gently with a damp, lint-free cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the cushioning and adhesive components.
