FAQs
Can I use the Gel-Task 4 outdoors?
These shoes are designed for indoor courts. While they may be wearable outside, the outsole will wear down much faster on concrete or asphalt.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are court trainers intended for lateral movement and jumping. They lack the specific heel-to-toe transition support needed for long-distance running.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
Refer to the standard UK sizing provided and ensure your foot has about a thumb's width of space at the front for comfort during movement.
Does the shoe provide lateral stability?
Yes, the build of the Gel-Task 4 is specifically meant to provide lateral support to help stabilize the foot during quick side-to-side movements.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Depending on frequency of use, most athletes replace court shoes every 6-12 months once the cushioning feels compressed or the tread loses its grip.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on the court surface
Clean the soles with a damp cloth to remove dust buildup and ensure the court surface is clean.
Feeling of insufficient arch support
Consider using sport-specific orthotic insoles if you require additional arch correction.
Unpleasant odor after use
Remove insoles after training to let them dry independently and use an antimicrobial shoe spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Task 4 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These are men's trainers; ensure you consult the size guide before selecting your specific UK size.
- Surface Compatibility: These shoes are optimized for gym and indoor court surfaces. Using them on abrasive outdoor surfaces like concrete will cause the tread to wear out significantly faster.
- Cleaning: After use, wipe down the outsole with a damp cloth to remove court dust, which helps maintain maximum grip. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive. Allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
