FAQs

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Measure your foot length from heel to toe in centimeters. Compare this measurement to the provided EU size chart. If your foot length falls between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the larger size.

What is the 'EP' in the product name?

EP typically stands for 'Extra Performance' or ' a wider fit' in Nike's naming convention, often indicating a slightly wider build suitable for a broader range of foot shapes, particularly in Asian markets, though it generally offers a comfortable fit for many.

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?

These shoes are primarily designed for indoor court use. While the outsole is durable, prolonged use on abrasive outdoor surfaces can accelerate wear and potentially damage the cushioning and traction components.

How long does the break-in period usually take?

The break-in period can vary by individual. Typically, 1-3 sessions of light to moderate play are sufficient for the shoes to start feeling more comfortable and conforming to your foot.

Can I machine wash these basketball shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the shoe's structure, adhesives, and materials. Always clean them by hand using mild soap and water as outlined in the care instructions.

What is the difference between this and the non-EP version?

The 'EP' version is often designed with a slightly wider base or fit to accommodate a broader range of foot shapes, particularly for players who might find standard widths constricting.

Does the colorway represent a specific Lakers team era?

The 'Lakers' colorway typically uses the team's signature purple and gold/yellow, inspired by their iconic uniforms. Specific design elements may draw from various eras of the team's history.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable during initial wear.

This is likely due to the break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations during non-strenuous activities to allow the materials to stretch and mold to your foot. Ensure you have selected the correct size by measuring your foot as per the sizing guide.

Traction feels slippery on the court.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dust and debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth if they appear dirty. Some initial wear may be needed for the traction pattern to become fully effective.

Colors appear different from online images.

Monitor calibration and lighting conditions can affect how colors are displayed. The product image is intended as a representation; actual colors may have slight variations. The 'Lakers' colorway is consistent with team colors.

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing the laces with a type that offers better grip if this remains an issue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup:

These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. It is recommended to wear them for a short period during light activity to allow them to conform to your foot shape before engaging in intense play. This process is often referred to as a 'break-in' period.

Sizing Guide:

To ensure the best fit, measure your foot length from the heel to the longest toe. If your measurement falls between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the larger size. Refer to the provided EU size chart and compare it with your foot length in centimeters (cm).

  • How to Measure Foot Length:
  1. Place a piece of paper on the floor against a wall.
  2. Stand on the paper with your heel touching the wall.
  3. Mark the tip of your longest toe on the paper.
  4. Measure the distance from the mark to the edge of the paper (where the wall is).

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning:
  • Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth.
  • For stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush. Gently scrub the affected area.
  • Wipe away soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage:
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
  • Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent color fading.
  • Maintenance:
  • Periodically check the outsole for wear and tear.
  • Ensure laces are tied properly during play to maintain a secure fit and prevent undue stress on the shoe structure.
