FAQs

Are the Kobe IX Elite Low EM Protro shoes true to size?

Generally, the shoes fit true to size. However, it's recommended to consult the size chart and read reviews for more specific sizing advice.

How do I clean the Flyknit upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing.

Can I use these shoes for outdoor play?

While the shoes can be used outdoors, the outsole's durability may be reduced. Primarily, they are designed for indoor court use.

What kind of cushioning do the shoes have?

What is Flywire technology?

Flywire technology uses strategically placed filaments that act like cables on a suspension bridge to offer support precisely where it's needed.

How often should I replace the insoles?

Replace the insoles when they show signs of wear or compression, or every 6-12 months depending on usage.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. Consider wearing thinner socks or trying a half-size larger.

Poor traction on the court.

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris.
