FAQs
Is the AE 2 suitable for outdoor courts?
While designed for performance, outdoor use on rough surfaces will wear down the tread faster than indoor court play.
How should I clean the light-colored upper?
Use a damp, soft cloth or a specialized sneaker cleaning brush with mild soap. Do not submerge the shoes.
Does this model run true to size?
Yes, the AE 2 generally aligns with standard adult sizing; ensure you wear your typical performance shoe size.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required for additional support.
Why is the midsole shaped so aggressively?
The sculpting is designed to increase lateral stability and energy transfer during high-movement basketball actions.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or scuffs on the pink upper
Use a soft brush and a specialized sneaker cleaning solution to gently spot clean the affected area.
Feeling a loss of traction
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated court dust and check for any lodged debris in the tread.
Insecure fit or heel slippage
Ensure the laces are tightened specifically through the mid-foot eyelets and consider wearing slightly thicker athletic socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your AE 2 trainers, begin by ensuring a proper fit; as an adult male basketball shoe, the sizing is standard, but wearing them with performance-grade basketball socks will optimize the lockdown feel. For care, avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial washing machines. Use a soft-bristled brush with lukewarm water and mild detergent to gently remove dust and court debris from the upper. Allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, which can cause the Lucid Pink pigment to fade or the materials to stiffen. Regularly check the outsoles for debris to maintain consistent traction.
