Product Information
Full details
The Asics Field Trainers are designed specifically for female hockey players who demand stability and responsiveness during high-intensity matches on astro turf. These shoes offer a secure, locked-in fit that supports rapid turns and sharp cuts, making them an excellent choice for athletes focused on performance and agility; however, users should note that they are optimized primarily for synthetic pitch environments and may not offer the same traction on other surfaces.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While they feature synthetic materials that repel some moisture, they are not strictly waterproof and should be dried properly if exposed to heavy rain.
Can I use these for indoor hockey?
These are designed for astro turf; they may be too aggressive or lack the proper non-marking rubber required for indoor courts.
How do I choose the right size?
These follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to try them on with the specific thickness of hockey socks you intend to wear during matches.
How often should I replace them?
Depending on the frequency of play, you should inspect the outsole lugs annually. Once the tread becomes smooth or the cushioning feels compressed, performance will decline.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as heat and agitation can degrade the structural integrity and adhesives of the shoe. Wipe them down with a damp cloth instead.
Troubleshooting
Inconsistent traction during matches
Check the outsole for compacted mud or rubber crumbs from the pitch, as these can fill the grip patterns and reduce effectiveness.
Foot slippage inside the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to better lock the heel in place, or consider using sports-specific performance insoles.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure your laces are pulled taut across the midfoot to leverage the built-in stability features. These shoes are sized specifically for the UK adult market; ensure you have verified your fit before your first training session. To extend the life of your trainers, remove excess mud or turf rubber from the outsole after each session using a soft brush. If the shoes become wet, air-dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as intense heat can damage the synthetic materials and foam midsole.
