FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While the outsoles are durable, they are primarily optimized for indoor court performance; consistent outdoor use may increase wear on the tread.
Do these shoes provide ankle support?
As a low-top model, they offer minimal mechanical ankle support, focusing instead on agility and freedom of movement.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing for adult males; choose your regular size for a performance-fit feel.
Can I replace the original insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
What is the best way to clean the purple upper material?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soapy water to gently spot clean; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction during gameplay
Clean the outsole with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and floor debris.
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Ensure laces are tightened securely through all eyelets and consider using performance basketball socks.
Material stiffness out of the box
Wear the shoes during light walking or non-competitive drills for 2-3 hours to break in the upper material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes perform optimally, ensure you select the correct UK size for a snug, secure fit. Before your first full game, consider wearing them around the house to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth after each game to maintain traction.
- Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as heat can degrade the cushioning foam and bonding adhesives.
- Replace the insoles if you require specific arch support or orthotics.
