FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for outdoor courts?

The Nike KD 18 EP 'Rise' trainers are primarily designed for indoor court performance. The outsole may wear down more quickly on abrasive outdoor surfaces.

What is the primary benefit of the 'Rise' feature?

The 'Rise' designation often refers to design elements that enhance responsiveness and give players a feeling of lift or elevation during play, contributing to explosive movements.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Lace up the shoes snugly, ensuring your heel is locked into the back of the shoe. The fit should be secure without being overly constricting.

What does 'EP' mean in the product name?

'EP' typically stands for 'Engineered Performance' or 'Extra Protection,' indicating features tailored for enhanced durability and performance, often suited for players who require more support.

How often should I clean my trainers?

It's recommended to clean your trainers after each use, especially if they've been subjected to sweat or dirt, to maintain their condition and performance.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Specific warranty information is best obtained directly from the retailer or Nike's official website, as it can vary by region and purchase date.

Troubleshooting

Traction feels slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. If the issue persists, the surface may not be ideal for optimal grip.

Shoes feel too tight during wear.

The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if the fit is suitable for your foot shape.

Cushioning feels less responsive over time.

While cushioning is durable, its responsiveness can decrease with extensive wear. Ensure you are not over-tightening the laces, which can affect the feel of the cushioning.

Upper material appears worn.

Inspect for signs of excessive friction or abrasion. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help prolong the life of the upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they are tied securely using the lacing system for optimal support and fit.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for basketball performance on indoor courts. While suitable for general athletic training, their specific features are optimized for the sport.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, gently wipe down the shoes with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  4. Laundering: Do not machine wash or tumble dry these trainers, as this can compromise their structural integrity and materials.
