FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor running?
No, the Ligra 8 is specifically engineered for indoor court sports and lacks the cushioning and outsole tread required for road or trail running.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
What is Adituff technology?
Adituff is an abrasion-resistant material placed in the toe area to protect the shoe from wear and tear during high-friction sports.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, the Ligra 8 features a standard regular fit consistent with most adidas indoor athletic footwear.
Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
Are these unisex?
While many models in the Ligra series are designed for men, some variations (like the black version) are designated as unisex; always check the specific product listing for gender sizing.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the midfoot
Try re-lacing the shoe using a 'window lacing' technique to reduce pressure over the bridge of the foot.
Slipping on the court surface
Wipe the outsoles with a slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove dust and restore traction.
Leather looks dull or dirty
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild soapy water solution on a soft cloth, then air dry away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the laces are tightened evenly starting from the bottom eyelets toward the ankle. Because these trainers utilize leather materials, keep them away from excessive moisture or extreme heat sources like radiators, as these can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape. After indoor matches, wipe down the outer surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and court residue. To maintain grip, periodically clean the outsole with a damp cloth to ensure the rubber remains free of dust that can cause sliding on polished courts.
