FAQs

What makes the "Night Shift" edition unique?

The "Night Shift" edition features a pitch-black upper and a glow-in-the-dark outsole, designed for visibility and style in low-light conditions.

How do I activate the glow-in-the-dark feature?

Expose the outsole to a light source for a few minutes. The glow is temporary and will need to be recharged with light.

What type of cushioning does the Giannis Freak 7 use?

It utilizes Cushlon 3.0 foam, known for its responsiveness and cushioning properties.

Is the internal cage necessary for fit?

Yes, the internal molded cage is designed to hug the foot securely, enhancing lockdown and support during play. Proper lacing ensures its effectiveness.

What surfaces are these trainers best suited for?

These trainers are best suited for indoor basketball courts and are also durable enough for use on outdoor courts.

How should I clean my Giannis Freak 7 trainers?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What is the main benefit of the multidirectional outsole?

The multidirectional outsole pattern provides reliable traction, enabling quick cuts, pivots, and stops in various directions.

Troubleshooting

Glow-in-the-dark feature not working

Expose the outsole to a bright light source for several minutes. The effect is temporary and requires recharging with light.

Slipping inside the shoe

Tighten the laces to ensure the internal molded cage is providing a secure lockdown. Consider using thicker socks if the issue persists.

Reduced traction on court

Clean the outsole using a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure you are playing on appropriate surfaces.

Discomfort or pressure points

Break in the shoes by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Adjust lacing to alleviate pressure.

Cons

  • Glow-in-the-dark feature requires initial light exposure to activate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly by adjusting the laces. For the glow-in-the-dark feature to activate, expose the outsole to a light source (natural or artificial) for a period before playing in low-light conditions.

Compatibility:

Designed primarily for basketball on indoor and outdoor courts. The durable construction makes them suitable for rigorous training.

Care:

  • Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
  • Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the materials.
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
  • The glow-in-the-dark feature will naturally fade with use and washing; periodic exposure to light will reactivate it.
