FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While durable, the outsole is optimized for indoor court performance; outdoor surfaces may cause the tread pattern to wear down more quickly.
What is the primary benefit of the mid-top design?
The mid-top design provides enhanced ankle coverage and structural support compared to low-top trainers.
How do I ensure the correct size for my child?
The Luka 77 follows standard UK sizing; ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, heat from a dryer can warp the sole and damage the synthetic upper materials. Always air dry at room temperature.
Does this shoe provide good lateral support?
Yes, the construction and reinforced side panels are designed to assist with side-to-side movements typical in basketball.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during play
Use a double-knot technique and ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets for a secure lockdown.
Slippery grip on court
Wipe the outsole with a slightly damp microfiber towel to remove accumulated dust that can inhibit traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance, ensure the laces are adjusted to hold the foot snugly without cutting off circulation, especially across the midfoot. For care, wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth after games to remove dust and court debris. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the adhesives used in the construction of the sole. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from drying out or losing their shape over time.
