Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your ASICS Gel-Challenger 15, ensure you choose the correct UK size for your foot shape. During initial use, wear the shoes for shorter sessions to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. For maintenance, remove loose clay from the outsole after every match using a soft brush; this prevents grit from prematurely wearing down the tread pattern. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the cushioning materials and glues.
