FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the BOOM technology?

BOOM technology is designed to provide superior cushioning and energy return, making movements feel more responsive and less fatiguing.

Is the carbon fiber plate noticeable during play?

The carbon fiber plate enhances responsiveness and stability without being overly rigid. It contributes to a better court feel during dynamic movements.

How do I clean the 'Oxygen' colorway without damaging the design?

Clean the shoes using a damp cloth and mild soap for the outsole. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing, especially on the upper and any printed design elements.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday casual wear?

While comfortable, these trainers are engineered for athletic performance, particularly basketball. For casual wear, consider their specialized features may not be fully utilized.

What kind of socks are recommended?

Athletic or performance socks are recommended to complement the shoe's features and ensure optimal comfort and fit.

What does the 'Oxygen' colorway represent?

The 'Oxygen' colorway is distinguished by unique design elements inspired by musical notes and a waveform pattern on the outsole, giving it a distinctive aesthetic.

How does the breathable knit upper contribute to performance?

The breathable knit upper allows for constant airflow, helping to keep your feet cool and dry, which enhances comfort and reduces the risk of overheating during intense activity.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes with athletic socks for a short period around the house to allow them to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct size; if still uncomfortable, consider a different size.

Traction is reduced on court

Wipe down the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the court surface is clean and dry.

Slight squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes due to air trapped between components. It often resolves itself with continued use. If persistent, check for any loose debris inside the shoe.
