FAQs
What sports are these ASICS UPCOURT™ 6 trainers designed for?
These trainers are specifically engineered for indoor court sports such as volleyball, handball, and squash, providing optimal traction and flexibility for these activities.
Can I use these shoes for general gym workouts or running?
While they offer comfort and support, the ASICS UPCOURT™ 6 is optimized for the specific demands of indoor court sports. For general gym workouts or running, shoes designed for those activities would typically offer better performance and cushioning.
How does the 'solution dyeing process' benefit the sockliner?
The solution dyeing process is an eco-friendly manufacturing method. It significantly reduces water usage by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by about 45% compared to conventional dyeing technologies, making it more sustainable.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
It is highly recommended to try on the footwear before purchasing or returning. Wear the type of socks you typically use for sports. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing an ASICS specific sizing chart or consulting with a fit specialist.
Are these trainers suitable for outdoor use?
No, the UPCOURT™ 6 trainers feature an outsole specifically designed for maximum grip and durability on indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors can cause premature wear to the outsole and reduce their performance.
How can I clean the anti-slip rubber outsole?
To maintain optimal grip, regularly clean the outsole. Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a small amount of mild soap and water to scrub away any dirt or debris. Rinse lightly and allow to air dry completely before use.
Do these shoes provide good ankle support?
The ASICS UPCOURT™ 6 trainers offer a secure and comfortable fit with a focus on lightweight flexibility for agile movements. As they are low-cut trainers, for individuals requiring enhanced ankle support, external ankle braces or higher-cut shoes specifically designed for maximum ankle stability might be considered.
Troubleshooting
Poor grip or slipping on the court.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of dust or debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth if necessary before play. Also, verify that the court surface itself is clean and appropriate for indoor sports.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Check your sizing by trying the shoes on again with your athletic socks. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly. Allow a break-in period if they are new, and consider different sock types for improved comfort.
Trainers develop an odor.
After each use, remove the insoles and allow the shoes to air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside to absorb moisture and neutralize odors. Avoid storing them in damp, enclosed spaces.
Mesh material appears stretched or damaged.
The mesh is designed for flexibility. For minor stretching, ensure proper fit and avoid excessive force when putting on/taking off. For damage, inspect if it impacts performance. If so, professional repair or replacement may be needed. Always air dry to prevent material degradation.

Setup
Before using your ASICS UPCOURT™ 6 trainers, it's crucial to ensure the correct fit. Always try on the footwear with the type of athletic socks you typically wear for your sport. Lacing them snugly but comfortably will help achieve the optimal secure fit for court movements. Make sure there is about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Compatibility
The ASICS UPCOURT™ 6 trainers are specifically designed and optimized for indoor court surfaces. They are ideal for sports such as volleyball, handball, and squash, where quick directional changes and reliable traction are essential. These shoes are not recommended for outdoor use, as different surfaces can wear down the specialized indoor outsole prematurely.
Care
To maintain the performance and longevity of your UPCOURT™ 6 trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently scrub dirt and debris from the rubber outsole. This helps maintain the anti-slip properties.
- Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or stuffing with newspaper can help them retain their shape and absorb moisture.
