FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball courts?

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The primary material is leather, offering durability and a premium feel.

How do I know if the UK 11.5 size is right for me?

Compare your foot measurements to a standard UK sizing chart. It's recommended to try them on if possible, or ensure you understand the return policy if ordering online.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thinner socks or try lacing them looser initially. Allow for a break-in period as the leather will adapt to your foot shape over time.

Slipping in the heel

Ensure the laces are tied securely, using the extra eyelets if necessary for a more locked-down fit. Check if the size is appropriate; a heel slip can sometimes indicate a size that is too large.

Traction seems reduced on dusty courts

Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove dust buildup. Regular cleaning of the outsoles will help maintain optimal grip.

Discomfort during lateral movements

Verify that the laces are appropriately tightened to provide lateral support. The shoe is designed for stability, so ensure it's providing the intended lockdown.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent support for lateral movements and cuts.
  • Responsive cushioning for explosive actions.
  • Durable construction suitable for rigorous play.
  • Stylish design that transitions from court to casual wear.
  • Secure fit to minimize foot slippage during activity.

Cons

  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • Leather material might be less breathable than synthetic alternatives.
  • EP version's durability might be geared more towards outdoor courts, potentially affecting indoor court feel for some players.
  • Specific sizing (UK 11.5) may limit availability for those needing different sizes.
  • Not ideal for individuals seeking extremely lightweight, minimalist footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit comfortably before engaging in strenuous activity. It is recommended to wear them for short periods initially to allow your feet to acclimate.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for basketball and similar court sports. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. Their sizing is based on the UK system.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a clothes dryer, as this can damage the materials and shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors.
