FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The CourtJam Control 3 features a regular fit. While the lace closure allows for some adjustment, individuals with exceptionally wide feet may find a wider shoe model more comfortable.
How durable is the Adiwear outsole?
The Adiwear outsole is known for its high resistance to wear and tear, particularly in key high-abrasion zones, making it suitable for frequent play.
Can I use these shoes for training sessions?
Yes, the combination of cushioning and support makes them suitable for training sessions. However, their primary design is optimized for match play on clay courts.
What is the benefit of the Bounce midsole?
The Bounce midsole provides responsive cushioning that absorbs impact and returns energy, helping to reduce fatigue and enhance comfort during play.
What does 'Contains at least 20% recycled content' mean?
This indicates that a significant portion of the shoe's materials are derived from recycled sources, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.
How do I clean clay off the shoes?
Gently brush off loose clay with a dry brush. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the surfaces. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable during first wear.
The CourtJam Control 3 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for a few practice sessions or shorter matches to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape. Ensure laces are adjusted for comfort.
Traction feels less effective on non-clay surfaces.
These shoes are specifically designed for optimal grip on clay courts. For hard courts or other surfaces, consider shoes with a different outsole pattern designed for those conditions.
Feet feel warm or sweaty during play.
While the mesh upper is breathable, intense activity can still lead to warmth. Ensure you are using moisture-wicking socks. Allow shoes to air out completely after each use.
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing standard laces with lock laces or using a lace-tying technique that prevents loosening.
