FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are designed specifically for court sports. The sole is optimized for lateral movement and durability rather than the forward-motion mechanics of running.
Can I use these on clay courts?
Yes, the Aösta 7.0 rubber and deep herringbone tread pattern provide excellent grip on various court surfaces, including clay.
How do I determine if the size is correct?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot expansion during play.
How often should I replace these shoes?
If you play regularly, monitor the tread pattern. Once the herringbone grooves become smooth or the cushioning loses its snap, it is time to replace them.
Are the sock liners removable?
Yes, the die-cut foam sock liner can be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics or medical insoles.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on the court surface
Check if the herringbone tread is clogged with court debris or dust; clean the outsole with a damp brush.
Discomfort or pinching during play
Ensure the shoe is correctly laced and try an alternative lacing technique, such as the runner's loop, to secure the heel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your K-SWISS Express Light 3 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short intervals on the court to allow the RPU cage to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt from the outsole using a soft brush after each session. For the upper, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging in water or using harsh detergents.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber and foam from degrading.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight across the bridge of the foot to allow for natural blood circulation during intense play.
