FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for other sports?
While primarily designed for netball, their features like cushioning and stability can make them suitable for other indoor court sports such as volleyball or basketball, depending on your specific needs and preferences.
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. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel comfortably snug.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning systems. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology in the midsole is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing enhanced cushioning and reducing the impact on your joints during high-impact activities like jumping and landing.
How often should I replace my netball shoes?
The lifespan of netball shoes varies based on usage frequency, intensity, and playing surface. Typically, players may need to replace them every 6-12 months or when they notice a significant loss in cushioning, support, or grip.
Do these shoes come in other colors or sizes?
The ASICS Gel-Netburner Academy 10 series is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for other available options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thinner socks if the fit is snug.
Reduced grip on the court
Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris that may be affecting traction. Ensure the court surface is clean.
Squeaking noise during movement
This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or on the tongue area. Ensure laces are tied appropriately.
Visible wear and tear after minimal use
Check for excessive friction points or improper use. Ensure the shoes are being used solely for their intended purpose (netball on indoor courts) and not for abrasive activities.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt from the upper and outsole with a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Never dry shoes near a direct heat source like a radiator or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials. Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and damage. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
- Laces: Clean laces separately by hand washing them in mild soapy water.
