FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
While they perform best on indoor courts, they can be used outdoors; however, keep in mind that rough asphalt will wear down the tread faster than smooth gym surfaces.
Do the Dame 9 trainers run true to size?
They feature a performance fit which is generally snug. If you prefer a bit more room or wear thick ankle braces, you may want to consider a half-size up.
How do I clean the blue and white upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild detergent solution. Avoid machine washing or using bleach as this can damage the performance fabrics.
Can these be used for other sports besides basketball?
The Dame 9 is specifically optimized for basketball. While they offer good support, they may be too heavy or stiff for activities like long-distance running.
Do I need to break these in?
Yes, like most performance basketball shoes, a few sessions of light activity will help the materials mold to your foot shape for a customized fit.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the court
Dust or debris often builds up in the tread; wipe the outsoles down with a damp cloth or a dedicated traction mat.
Pressure points during wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted evenly across the bridge of the foot; do not overtighten at the base of the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, wear these trainers with moisture-wicking athletic socks to maintain comfort and prevent friction. Because these shoes feature a technical fit, it is recommended to test the size before extended play.
Care Instructions:
- Clean the outsole with a soft brush to remove dust and debris after every session to maintain grip.
- Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoe.
- Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which can warp the cushioning materials.
- Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
