FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
No, these are specialized field hockey trainers with a lugged sole designed for turf; they may feel uncomfortable and wear out prematurely on hard, flat surfaces like pavement.
Are these trainers waterproof?
They feature a synthetic and textile upper that is durable, but they are not classified as waterproof.
How do I clean my HOCKEYSTAR trainers?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and brush off any debris from the outsole. Always air dry at room temperature.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, they are designed as a unisex model suitable for adult players of all genders.
Do I need to break these in?
While they are comfortable from the start, we recommend wearing them during a few practice sessions before using them in a competitive match to ensure the materials mold to your foot shape.
What is the primary surface for these shoes?
They are designed primarily for synthetic hockey turf.
Troubleshooting
Foot slippage inside the shoe during play
Ensure the laces are tightened specifically through the eyelets and consider using a 'runner's loop' at the top for a more secure heel lock.
Reduced traction on the pitch
Check the outsole for caked-in mud or turf debris; use a stiff-bristled brush to clear out the lug channels.
Material showing signs of wear
If the upper is dirty, clean with a damp cloth. Ensure the shoes are not being used on concrete or asphalt surfaces, as this will rapidly degrade the specialized turf outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOCKEYSTAR trainers, start by ensuring you have the correct size; the regular fit is designed to hold the foot snugly, so avoid oversizing. Always double-knot your laces before heading onto the pitch to maintain the locked-in feel. After use, remove any sand or debris from the outsole lugs using a soft brush to maintain grip efficacy. Avoid machine washing, which can degrade the synthetic materials and foam cushioning; instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
