FAQs

What does the 'Easy Money' branding represent?

The 'Easy Money' branding is an ode to Kevin Durant's persona, and this colorway draws inspiration from global currencies, incorporating elements like dollar typography and security strips.

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?

While the durable materials can handle some wear, these shoes are primarily designed for indoor court performance. The outsole may wear down more quickly on abrasive outdoor surfaces.

How does the full-length Zoom Air unit benefit performance?

The full-length Zoom Air unit provides responsive cushioning and energy return, enhancing speed and stability by offering a springy feel with every step and jump.

What are the main materials used in the upper?

The upper is constructed with a breathable mesh base and features synthetic leather overlays for support and durability.

What is the primary advantage of the translucent TPU wings?

The translucent TPU wings offer enhanced lateral support and stability at the sidewalls, helping to secure the foot during quick movements and preventing excessive rolling.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart and measure your foot length. This specific model is a men's UK size 11.5, designed for adult feet.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of tension. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size up for a looser fit.

Reduced grip on the court

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. For indoor courts, avoid using the shoes on wet or dusty surfaces.

Discomfort during play

Allow for a break-in period of a few sessions. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Check lacing for proper fit adjustments.
