Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Dedicate 9 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. Ensure you select the correct size as indicated by your UK foot measurement to allow for natural toe splay during aggressive play. Compatibility is best on standard tennis or padel court surfaces. For care, keep the shoes in a well-ventilated area after matches to prevent moisture buildup. If the exterior gets dirty, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying, as this can compromise the structural adhesives and cushioning integrity.
