FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for other sports like tennis or squash?

How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by K-Swiss or your retailer. Typically, UK sizing for men's shoes is indicated. This model is specifically for adult male UK sizing.
What is DuraWrap Flex technology?
DuraWrap Flex is a durable material strategically placed in the shoe to provide support and flexibility in key areas, enhancing the shoe's lifespan and adapting to foot movement.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.
How much cushioning does the foam insole provide?
The foam insole offers a good level of cushioning to absorb impact during play, contributing to overall comfort and reducing foot fatigue.
What is the main benefit of the geometric pattern?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have selected the correct size.
Reduced traction on certain surfaces
The HB profile sole is optimized for padel courts. Traction may vary on other surfaces. Clean the sole regularly to remove debris that can affect grip.
Ankle rubbing or discomfort
Ensure the laces are tied appropriately without being too tight. The padded ankle area should provide comfort; if persistent, check for any internal stitching issues or consider thinner socks.
