FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Courtdreamstrike cushioning?

The Courtdreamstrike cushioning is designed to provide both soft landings to reduce impact on your joints and quick rebounds, offering a responsive feel during play.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed from a combination of textile and synthetic materials, featuring structured overlays for support and protection.

How does the design relate to Anthony Edwards?

The design incorporates five cut-outs on the side panel, a nod to Anthony Edwards' connection with the number 5, and the shoe's name reflects his personal credo.

Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball play?

While designed with court performance in mind and inspired by a professional athlete, they are positioned as an accessible option, suitable for enthusiasts and recreational play rather than elite professional leagues.

How should I clean the trainers?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing and direct heat for drying. Air dry naturally.

What is the main difference between these and the AE line?

The Believe That 1 line is positioned at a lower price point, offering a similar design ethos and performance features but may not include all the advanced technologies found in the higher-tier AE signature line.

What colours are available?

This specific guide entry is for the Core Black / Acid Orange / Supplier Colourway. Other colourways like Blue/Green are also available for the Believe That 1 series.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing to find a more secure and comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size, as fit can vary between individuals.

Reduced grip on the court

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dust or debris that may be reducing traction. Ensure the court surface is also clean.

Cushioning feels unresponsive

The Courtdreamstrike cushioning may require a break-in period. Engage in light activity to allow the cushioning to adapt to your foot. Over time, the responsiveness should improve.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Compatibility is broad, as they are designed for athletic activities like basketball and general casual use. To care for your adidas Believe That 1 trainers, it is recommended to clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used gently on the outsole and upper. Ensure proper storage by keeping them in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
