FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for outdoor use?
The adidas Ligra 8 Trainers are specifically designed for indoor sports courts. Their outsole is optimized for indoor surfaces, and using them outdoors may significantly reduce their lifespan and performance.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas and measure your foot length. The product information states this is a UK size 8, which is a standard adult male fit.
What is the 'Adituff toe' feature?
The Adituff toe is a highly abrasion-resistant material applied to the toe area, designed to protect the trainers from wear and tear during specific sports movements.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand clean with a damp cloth only.
What does 'contains at least 20% recycled content' mean?
This means that at least 20% of the total weight of the shoe is made from recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable product.
Is this shoe suitable for running or general training?
While cushioned, these trainers are primarily designed for the lateral movements and court-specific demands of indoor sports. For general training or running, other specialized footwear might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Traction feels reduced on court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Dust and debris can accumulate and affect grip. Wipe with a damp cloth.
Upper feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces; for looseness, tighten them evenly.
Discomfort during play
Check the fit by ensuring the heel is secure and the toe box has adequate room. Consider the type of sport and if the shoe's cushioning is sufficient for the impact involved.
