FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While durable, they are primarily designed for indoor basketball performance. Use on outdoor asphalt will significantly increase wear on the outsole.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the materials and vibrancy of the red colorway.
Do these provide good arch support?
The Wade 808 features a supportive midsole that offers decent arch stability for standard foot shapes.
Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
How do I know if the size is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Slippage during play
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove court dust and ensure you are using them on clean surfaces.
Feeling too tight around the midfoot
Adjust the lacing tension, opting for a 'runner's loop' or skipping an eyelet if you have higher arches.
Pros and Cons

- High durability suitable for frequent court use

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure your laces are adjusted correctly before your first session to secure the heel cup to your foot. These trainers are standard UK sizing; please ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks for the best fit. To maintain the life of your trainers, wipe the outsoles with a dry brush after indoor court use to remove dust buildup, which can compromise traction. Avoid machine washing or drying; instead, clean the upper material with a soft cloth and mild, diluted soap if necessary, and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
