FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hard courts?
The Ultrashot 4 is specifically designed for clay courts, featuring an outsole optimized for clay traction. While they can be worn on hard courts, the durability and grip characteristics may differ, and they might wear down faster.
How do I clean mud or clay off the shoes?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt and clay. For more stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry.
What makes the Surge 7.0 midsole special?
The Surge 7.0 midsole technology is engineered to provide high levels of energy return, helping to propel you forward with each step and reducing fatigue during long matches.
Is the graphite winglet for support or aesthetics?
The custom graphite winglet is designed to provide enhanced lateral stability, supporting your foot during quick side-to-side movements and adding confidence during aggressive play.
What is the main advantage of the Aosta 7.0 outsole?
The Aosta 7.0 outsole offers superior grip and traction specifically on clay courts, allowing for precise footwork, quick pivots, and reliable stability.
What is the intended gender and age group for this shoe?
These trainers are designed for adult males.
Can I replace the insoles?
The Ultrashot 4 typically comes with a standard insole. While some users opt to replace insoles with custom orthotics for a personalized fit, check for compatibility and ensure the new insole does not negatively impact the shoe's overall structure and support.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on clay courts
Ensure the outsole is free from excess clay or debris. Gently brush the tread pattern to restore grip.
Discomfort during play
Verify the shoe size and fit. Consider using specialized athletic socks for added comfort and to prevent friction.

New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short practice sessions to allow them to conform to your feet.
