FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for tennis?
These are specifically designed for padel. While they can be used for casual play, the outsole pattern is optimized for padel surfaces, not abrasive hard-court tennis.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Do not put them in a washing machine as this can degrade the adhesives.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the Ortholite insole is removable, making it easy to clean or replace with custom orthotics if needed.
What surfaces does the Michelin sole work best on?
The sole is specifically engineered for high performance on both sand-filled and artificial grass padel court surfaces.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
The shoe provides moderate, balanced support suitable for most players, with the internal mesh construction helping to lock the foot in place.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during side-to-side movements
Ensure the laces are tightened specifically through the midfoot eyelets to better secure the foot against the mesh chassis.
Grip feels slippery on the court
Check the outsole for excess sand or dirt buildup. Clean the Michelin tread pattern with a stiff-bristle brush to restore traction.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Extremely lightweight construction for faster footwork
- Excellent traction on sand and artificial grass
- Effective shock absorption for heel protection
- Highly breathable design keeps feet cool
- Sleek, eye-catching red aesthetic
Cons
- Not optimized for standard hard-court tennis

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, pull the laces tight to lock the midfoot into the mesh structure. These shoes are sized for standard adult feet (UK size 7) and feature a neutral fit.
Care Instructions:
- Remove dust and sand from the sole after every session to maintain grip.
- Wipe the upper mesh with a damp cloth; avoid submerging in water.
- Remove the Ortholite insole periodically to air it out and prevent moisture buildup.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the rubber compounds.
