Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, ensure you have the correct UK sizing, as the KD 13 series is designed for a performance-snug fit. For care, avoid using harsh chemicals on the leather exterior. Instead, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth after play to remove dust and court debris. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or warping.
