FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hard courts?
These shoes are designed with a herringbone pattern specifically for clay. While they can be worn elsewhere, they will perform best and last longest on clay surfaces.
How do I clean my K-SWISS trainers?
Wipe with a damp cloth and air dry away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash.
Does the shoe provide enough arch support?
The die-cut foam sock liner provides moderate cushioning and support suitable for most recreational and competitive tennis players.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Express Light 3 generally follows standard athletic footwear sizing; refer to your UK size 3.5 measurement for the best fit.
What is the benefit of the Aösta 7.0 rubber?
Aösta 7.0 is a high-density rubber compound that offers significantly improved abrasion resistance, extending the life of the outsole.
Troubleshooting
Excessive clay buildup in the tread
Use a specialized tennis shoe brush or a dry cloth to dislodge the clay from the herringbone grooves after play.
Feeling instability in the heel
Ensure the laces are tightened correctly around the padded ankle collar to fully engage the support features of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your K-SWISS trainers, always ensure you are using them on the intended clay surface. Because these shoes feature a deep tread pattern, they can accumulate clay debris; it is recommended to brush off excess clay after every match using a soft-bristled brush. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the foam sock liner and the RPU cage. Avoid washing these trainers in a machine, as the high heat and agitation can compromise the adhesive bonds and the cushioning properties of the foam.
