FAQs
Is the adidas AE 2 suitable for outdoor courts?
While the shoe is designed for performance, the outsole is best suited for indoor court surfaces. Regular outdoor use may lead to premature wear of the tread pattern.
Does this shoe provide good ankle support?
The layered construction and supportive heel cup provide a stable, locked-in feel around the ankle for most players.
How do I determine the right size?
The AE 2 generally runs true to size. If you prefer a snug, performance fit, order your standard shoe size.
Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if necessary.
Will the Lucid Pink color fade?
Like any bright sneaker, avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use will help maintain the vibrancy of the colors.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose during play
Adjust the lacing pattern to be tighter across the midfoot to leverage the internal lockdown structure.
Surface scuffs appearing on the pink upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft cloth dampened with mild detergent to gently lift surface marks.
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened and the tongue is pulled forward before inserting the foot, as the lockdown fit is naturally snug.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, secure the laces firmly to take advantage of the lockdown-focused layered upper. These shoes are true-to-size for most adult athletes, but it is recommended to wear them with performance-grade athletic socks to achieve the ideal fit. For care, avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the synthetic materials. Use a soft-bristle brush and a mild soap-and-water solution to spot clean the upper, and always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the structural integrity of the midsole.
