FAQs

What does 'EP' stand for in Nike KD 17 EP?

'EP' typically stands for Extra Protection, indicating a version designed with enhanced durability and support, often favored for use on outdoor courts or by players needing a more robust shoe.

How should I clean my Nike KD 17 EP trainers?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the surface. Avoid machine washing or using strong chemicals. Allow them to air dry completely.

Are these shoes suitable for all basketball playing surfaces?

The Nike KD 17 EP 'Sunrise' are primarily designed for indoor basketball courts. While the EP version offers increased durability, prolonged use on rough outdoor surfaces may lead to faster wear and tear of the outsole.

What is the expected break-in period for these trainers?

New leather footwear often requires a break-in period. Expect to wear them for a few practice sessions or games to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape for optimal comfort and performance.

What is the main color of the Nike KD 17 EP 'Sunrise'?

The main color is University Gold, accented with Black and Safety Orange.

What type of toe does this shoe have?

This shoe features a round toe type.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and try lacing them again, adjusting tension as needed. Consider if the shoes need a break-in period.

Slipping inside the shoe

Ensure the laces are tied securely and adjusted properly. Check if the sock fit is appropriate for athletic footwear.

Reduced grip on the court

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris that can affect traction. Ensure the court surface is clean.

Leather material creasing excessively

This is normal for leather shoes with use. To minimize creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets for a secure fit. Adjust lacing tension to your preference for comfort and support.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for basketball performance. While the EP (Extra Protection) version offers enhanced durability, they are best suited for indoor court surfaces. Compatibility with outdoor courts is limited due to potential accelerated wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources after cleaning or if they become wet.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
