Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness in the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets upward to customize the pressure distribution.
Accumulation of dust on the outsole affecting traction
Wipe the bottom of the soles with a slightly damp cloth or use a dedicated court-shoe traction pad.
Surface scuffs appearing on the silver panels
Gently buff the area with a soft, clean microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution; avoid scrubbing to prevent finish degradation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, ensure you are referencing the UK size guide, as these trainers are precision-engineered to fit the adult foot. When breaking in the shoes, wear them for shorter sessions initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. To care for your Dame 9s, wipe the surface with a damp cloth after each use to remove dust. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners which could damage the silver finish. If the interior becomes damp after a workout, remove the laces and allow them to air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
