FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for hard courts?
While the Gel-Challenger 15s offer good cushioning, they are specifically engineered for clay courts due to their unique outsole pattern designed for optimal traction on loose surfaces. For hard courts, ASICS offers different models optimized for that surface.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel snug but not tight.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology within the shoe.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Please refer to the retailer's or ASICS' official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the ASICS Gel-Challenger 15 series is available in various colorways. Please check the product listings for other available options.
How often should I replace my clay court trainers?
This depends on the frequency and intensity of play. Generally, if you notice a significant loss of traction, cushioning, or support, it's time for a new pair, typically after 6-12 months of regular use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods during non-playing activities to allow them to mold to your feet. Gradual break-in will improve comfort.
Traction seems less effective after some use
Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush to remove embedded clay or debris that may be hindering grip.
Discomfort on the sides of the feet
Ensure the laces are not overtightened. Adjust lacing to provide more room if necessary, especially in the midfoot area.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After play, gently brush off excess clay or dirt with a soft brush or cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, stuff them with dry paper or cloth to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight when not in use.
