FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?

Yes, all units are provided in their original packaging to ensure premium condition.

The Protro (Performance Retro) version features upgraded technology while maintaining the visual aesthetic of the original model.

Can I use custom orthotics with these?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable to accommodate personalized orthotic inserts.

Troubleshooting

Slippery court performance

Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth or a dedicated sticky pad to remove surface dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, it is essential to follow a consistent care regimen.

  1. Sizing: Verify your UK foot size (e.g., UK 7) before purchase to ensure a snug fit, as performance gear requires minimal heel slip.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the outsole after each use with a damp cloth to maintain traction and prevent dust buildup.
  3. Storage: Keep away from extreme heat sources to preserve the integrity of the foam and synthetic materials.
  4. Rotation: Allow the interior to air out completely between sessions to maintain hygiene and comfort.
