FAQs
What type of sports are these shoes best for?
These shoes are optimized for indoor sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, and other court-based activities that require quick movements, agility, and reliable grip.
Can I wear these shoes for outdoor running?
No, these shoes are specifically designed for indoor court use. The outsole is not built for the abrasion of outdoor surfaces like asphalt or concrete and could be damaged.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The shoes should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Novaflight 2 features a regular fit. While the textile upper offers some flexibility, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them too narrow. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
What is the benefit of Lightstrike cushioning?
Lightstrike is an ultra-lightweight cushioning technology that provides excellent shock absorption and energy return, allowing for a responsive feel and reducing the impact on your joints during athletic movements.
How much recycled content is in these shoes?
The shoes contain at least 20% recycled content in their construction, contributing to adidas' commitment to reducing waste and environmental impact.
How should I clean the textile upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the textile upper. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try re-lacing them, focusing on distributing pressure evenly. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if socks are too thick.
Slipping on the court
Ensure the court surface is clean and free from dust or moisture. The Adiwear outsole is designed for grip, so significant slipping may indicate an unclean court or worn-out outsole over time.
Discomfort during play
Verify the lacing technique and ensure it's not too tight in specific areas. Check if the socks used are appropriate. If discomfort persists, the shoe's fit might not be suitable for your foot shape.
Outsole leaving marks
The 'Non-marking' Adiwear outsole is designed to prevent scuff marks on most indoor courts. If marks are appearing, ensure the court surface is properly maintained and free from sticky residues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no specific setup. Simply ensure they are the correct size and laced appropriately for a secure fit before use.
Compatibility: The adidas Novaflight 2 Indoor Shoes are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces such as wood, synthetic, or rubberized courts. They are not recommended for outdoor use on asphalt, concrete, or rough terrain, as this can damage the outsole and affect performance.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and scratches. Ensure they are dry before storing to prevent mildew.
