FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Ligra 8 is designed for indoor court sports and may not provide adequate cushioning or support for running activities. It is best used for sports like volleyball, badminton, and squash.

How do I clean the mesh and synthetic leather parts?

Use a damp cloth to wipe down the surfaces. For tougher spots, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush can be used. Always air dry.

What does 'Adituff toe' mean?

Adituff is a durable material applied to the toe area to protect against abrasion and extend the shoe's lifespan, particularly in sports involving toe dragging.

Can these trainers be used for outdoor sports?

No, these trainers are specifically designed for indoor court use. The rubber outsole and cushioning are optimized for these surfaces and may wear out quickly or perform poorly outdoors.

What is the benefit of the recycled content?

Using recycled content reduces waste and lowers the environmental impact of manufacturing. These trainers contain at least 20% recycled materials.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug but not constricting.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of tension. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if wearing thinner socks might help.

Traction is reduced on the court.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. Wipe them with a damp cloth. If wear is significant, the outsole may need replacement.

Discomfort during play.

Check the lacing for tightness and evenness. Ensure the correct size has been selected. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter play sessions.

Upper material shows signs of wear.

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For the Adituff toe, ensure no excessive dragging occurs during play. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain material integrity.

Compatibility: The Ligra 8 is designed for indoor court surfaces. It is compatible with sports like volleyball, badminton, handball, and squash. Avoid wearing them on rough outdoor surfaces to preserve the outsole and cushioning.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic leather and mesh upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials. Ensure they are fully dry before storing.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and damage.
