FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
Yes, the durable rubber outsole and radial traction are designed to withstand various court surfaces, though indoor use will prolong the life of the outsole.
Do I need to size up for the SHAI 001?
The fit is generally true to size, but the molded upper offers a snug, supportive feel. If you prefer a looser fit, you might consider trying a half size up.
How do I clean the leather material?
Use a soft, damp cloth for regular maintenance. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for sports footwear.
Is the Zoom Air unit replaceable?
No, the Zoom Air unit is integrated into the midsole and is not replaceable. It is designed to last for the duration of the shoe's effective life.
Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?
Yes, the factory insoles can be removed to accommodate most custom orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness across the top of the foot
Loosen the laces in the midfoot area and wear the trainers with thinner socks during the initial break-in phase.
Reduced traction on dusty indoor courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp towel or a specialized court-grip product to remove dust accumulation.
Scuffing on the leather upper
Use a gentle leather cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to buff out light scuffs; avoid harsh chemical solvents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your SHAI 001 trainers, ensure the laces are adjusted to your specific foot arch before initial use. For care, wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after dusty court sessions to prevent debris buildup. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the molded components. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the material. If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature with the laces loosened.
