FAQs

Can I use these on hard courts?

These are optimized for clay courts. Using them on hard courts will cause the sole to wear down much faster than intended.

Is the leather waterproof?

The leather is durable, but not explicitly waterproof. It is best to avoid playing in heavy rain.

How should I clean the white leather?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, yes, but because they feature a reinforced leather upper, some players prefer a half-size up if they wear thicker performance socks.

What is the primary benefit of the TRUSSTIC system?

It provides midfoot stability, preventing the shoe from twisting during the rapid side-to-side movements common in tennis.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of stiffness in the shoe

Leather shoes often require a brief break-in period; wear them for light walking or short practice sessions before full-intensity play.

Accumulation of clay in the sole

Tap the soles together after play and use a stiff-bristled brush to clear the herringbone grooves.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on clay surfaces
  • Strong lateral support for tennis-specific movements
  • Effective heel impact protection
  • Durable materials for long-term use

Cons

  • Leather material may require a break-in period
  • Heavier than mesh-upper alternatives
  • Specifically optimized for clay, not ideal for hard courts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure your laces are snug but not restrictive to allow for proper blood flow during long matches. These shoes are specifically intended for tennis courts with clay surfaces; using them on other surfaces may result in premature wear of the specialized sole. To maintain the leather upper, wipe them down with a damp cloth after use to remove clay dust. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the GEL cushioning. Air dry in a cool, shaded area if they become wet.
