FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While they can be worn outdoors, they are optimized for indoor court performance; outdoor use may accelerate wear on the outsole traction.
How do I maintain the leather material?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth and apply a leather-safe conditioner if the material begins to feel stiff.
Does the carbon fiber heel cup affect comfort?
It is designed to provide rigid stability for the heel and ankle without causing discomfort, provided the shoe is sized correctly.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to insert custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.
What is the primary benefit of the Lightning Strike technology?
Lightning Strike provides a lightweight, propulsive feel that helps minimize weight while maximizing responsiveness during high-speed movements.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points around the midfoot
Loosen the laces to allow the neoprene bootie to expand and adjust to your foot shape over the first few uses.
Accumulated dirt on mesh panels
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the mesh pores before wiping with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, focus on proper fit and surface maintenance. The leather construction and mesh panels are durable but sensitive to abrasive outdoor concrete. Clean the shoes by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the leather or internal foam components. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the carbon fiber and midsole foam.
