FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for clay courts?
Yes, the outsole is designed for standard padel and tennis court surfaces, providing good grip for court maneuvers.
How do I determine the right fit?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing. Ensure there is approximately half a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the sockliners are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if necessary.
Are they breathable?
The upper is constructed with synthetic leather and engineered materials to balance durability with breathability for intense matches.
Do these provide enough arch support?
The TRUSSTIC unit provides substantial midfoot support, which aids in stability and helps maintain proper alignment during play.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and adhesives of the shoe. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Ensure laces are tightened correctly from the bottom up and consider using the top eyelet to secure the heel.
Accumulated dirt on the outsole reducing grip
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and court debris from the grooves of the outsole.
Material feels slightly stiff during first use
Synthetic leather often requires a brief break-in period; wear them for short durations before taking them into a full-length match.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best experience, ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks to manage moisture and prevent friction. When tying the laces, utilize the top eyelet if you require a more secure heel lock-down. To maintain your shoes, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe down the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth after each session to remove dust and clay. If the insoles become damp, remove them after use to allow the shoe to air-dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
