FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for players with ankle injuries?

The KD 18 Low Shoes are low-cut and may not provide the level of ankle support needed for individuals with a history of ankle injuries or those requiring significant ankle stabilization. Consider high-top models if ankle support is a primary concern.

How do I clean the pink material?

Use a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the affected areas. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow to air dry.

What is the main benefit of the cushioning system?

The cushioning system is designed to provide excellent shock absorption during jumps and landings, while also offering responsive energy return to help with quick movements on the court.

Can these shoes be used for running or training outside of basketball?

While they offer comfort and support, these shoes are specifically designed and optimized for the demands of basketball. For general running or cross-training, dedicated shoes for those activities are recommended.

What does 'Low Shoes' mean in the product title?

'Low Shoes' refers to the cut of the shoe, meaning it sits below the ankle bone, offering more freedom of movement compared to mid-top or high-top basketball shoes.

How long does the traction typically last?

The durability of the traction depends on the playing surface, frequency of use, and player's style. The outsole is designed for durability on standard basketball courts.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. Wear with appropriate athletic socks. Consider a short break-in period.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the outsole to remove any dust or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the court surface is dry.

Feet feel warm

This is normal during intense activity. The breathable materials help, but if excessive, ensure socks are moisture-wicking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the condition of your Nike KD 18 Low Shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
