FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?
No, the adidas Ligra 8 Trainers are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors can damage the outsole and reduce their performance.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart and measure your foot. Try the shoes on with the type of socks you would typically wear for your sport. Ensure there is a little space at the toe and the heel feels secure.
What sports are these trainers best for?
These trainers are ideal for indoor sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, and other court-based activities that require agility, grip, and cushioning.
How much recycled content is in these shoes?
The adidas Ligra 8 Trainers contain at least 20% recycled content as part of adidas's commitment to sustainability.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the shoe's materials and construction. Clean them using a damp cloth or mild soap and water, and air dry.
Do these trainers offer ankle support?
The Ligra 8 are low-cut trainers and provide standard support. For individuals requiring more significant ankle support, high-top models or specialized ankle braces may be considered.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and adjust them for a more comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger or consulting the sizing chart.
Slipping on court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. Court surfaces can also affect grip; ensure the court is suitable for the shoe's intended use.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The midsole cushioning may naturally reduce with extensive use. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended lifespan for athletic footwear and consider replacement if performance has significantly degraded.
Material wear on the toe area
The Adituff toe is designed for durability, but excessive abrasion can still cause wear. Ensure your technique does not involve unnecessary dragging of the toe. If wear is significant, consider if the shoe is appropriate for your specific activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are securely laced before each use for optimal fit and support.
Compatibility: The Ligra 8 is designed for indoor court surfaces. Its rubber outsole is suitable for most indoor sports courts, including wood, linoleum, and synthetic surfaces. It is recommended to use these shoes exclusively for indoor activities to maintain their performance and prevent premature wear on outdoor or abrasive surfaces.
Care: To clean your adidas Ligra 8 Trainers, gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For the interior, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water if necessary. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and construction. Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Ensure the shoes are dry before storing them.
