FAQs
Is the adidas AE 1 suitable for outdoor courts?
Yes, the outsole is durable enough for outdoor use, though regular cleaning is recommended to maintain traction.
What is the primary benefit of the honeycomb design?
The honeycomb structure acts as an external cage that provides lateral containment, preventing the foot from rolling during sharp changes in direction.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The AE 1 typically features a snug, performance-fit design. If you prefer a looser fit, you may want to consider your standard athletic shoe size.
Can I use custom orthotics with these trainers?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing space for most low-profile custom orthotic inserts.
How do I maintain the metallic finish on the side supports?
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges. Wipe down gently with a microfiber cloth and clean water.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the side panels
Wear the shoes during light activity for a few hours to allow the TPU honeycomb cage to adapt to your foot's natural movement.
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened and use a shoehorn to avoid putting excessive stress on the heel tab.
Accumulation of dust in honeycomb gaps
Use a compressed air duster or a soft toothbrush to reach into the structural gaps for effective cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Size 14 trainers, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension to accommodate the secure, locked-in fit of the internal bootie construction. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water to clear debris from the honeycomb structure. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the TPU material and foam integrity. Always air dry in a cool, shaded area to maintain the silver finish's longevity.
