FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for tennis?
These shoes are specifically designed for padel. While they share some similarities with court shoes, the sole pattern and support technologies are optimized for padel's unique movements and surfaces, so they may not perform optimally or offer the correct support for tennis.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Your toes should be close to the front of the shoe without touching it when standing. There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe.
What is the HEAD Lateral Control Technology?
This is a technology integrated into the midsole that enhances stability during sideways movements, helping to prevent ankle rolls and support quick changes in direction.
How durable are the HEAD Motion Team 1.5 Padel Shoes?
The shoes are constructed with durable materials suitable for regular padel play. However, like all athletic footwear, longevity depends on playing frequency, intensity, and court conditions.
Will the white color get dirty easily?
The white color may show dirt and scuffs more readily than darker colors, especially on typical padel court surfaces. Regular cleaning as outlined in the care instructions will help maintain their appearance.
What is the purpose of the HEAD Lockdown Strap?
The HEAD Lockdown Strap is designed to provide a secure and adjustable fit, ensuring your foot remains firmly in place within the shoe during dynamic movements, enhancing control and stability.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels unstable during lateral movements.
Ensure the HEAD Lockdown Strap is securely fastened. Check that the shoe size is correct and not too loose.
Discomfort or pressure points on the foot.
Allow the shoes to break in gradually. Ensure socks worn are appropriate for sports. The padded tongue and soft materials should conform to your foot over time.
Shoes feel slippery on the court.
Ensure the court surface is clean and dry. The outsole is designed for padel courts; performance may vary on other surfaces. Check for excessive wear on the outsole tread.
Feet feel too warm or sweaty.
The mesh upper provides breathability, but excessive heat can be influenced by playing conditions and sock material. Consider moisture-wicking socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and performance.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for padel courts. While they offer good grip on indoor surfaces, their traction may vary on outdoor or mixed surfaces. They are not recommended for running, tennis, or other sports requiring different types of support and tread.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Wipe the shoes with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the shoes in water.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure they are fully dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
