Product Information
Full details
The adidas Adipower 2.1 Hockey Trainers are designed for adult male players who require a stable, cushioned platform to maintain control during high-intensity field hockey matches. Featuring specialized Geofit technology and a responsive Bounce midsole, these shoes provide exceptional lockdown and comfort for quick directional changes; however, the emphasis on a breathable mesh upper means they are best suited for dry or moderate field conditions rather than heavy, water-logged mud.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for grass fields?
While they perform best on artificial turf, they can be used on dry grass. They are not recommended for wet or muddy conditions.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water. Air dry away from direct sunlight.
Do the Sensepods require a break-in period?
Most players find them comfortable immediately, but the foam may contour more precisely to your heel after 1-2 uses.
Are these shoes made from sustainable materials?
Yes, 20% of the pieces used to make the upper are made with a minimum of 50% recycled content.
Can I replace the insole with orthotics?
The insole is removable, allowing you to insert personal orthotics if required for additional support.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping at the heel
Ensure the laces are tightened properly to activate the Geofit Sensepods and consider wearing technical sports socks that provide extra grip.
Accumulation of dirt in the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush once the shoe is completely dry to flick away dried mud or debris from the mesh pores.
Reduced traction on the field
Check the outsole for compacted mud or turf fill; wipe the rubber grid with a damp cloth to restore grip levels.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, secure the lace closure firmly to engage the internal Sensepods. The shoes are designed to fit true to size, but the performance-focused design prioritizes a snug hold. For maintenance, avoid machine washing, which can degrade the adhesive and cushioning properties. Instead, wipe the synthetic overlays with a damp cloth after each game. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area—do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this may warp the mesh and foam components.
