Can I use orthotic insoles with these trainers?

How do I ensure I have the right fit?

Is this model suitable for running?
These are casual lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for running or intensive sporting activities.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for the Adidas Grand Court Alpha; simply ensure your size is correct, typically a UK 8.5 for this specific model, and lace them to your desired tightness. Regarding compatibility, the neutral tones work best with denim, chinos, or casual joggers. To ensure longevity, keep these shoes away from harsh cleaning chemicals. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Always air dry them away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the materials and prevent the sole from warping.
