FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for actual basketball games?
While the design is inspired by basketball archives, they are lifestyle shoes and not recommended for competitive court sports.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush specifically for suede to gently remove dirt. Avoid getting the suede overly wet.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they are made of synthetic leather and suede, which are water-resistant but not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Does the shoe run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, individual foot width can vary, so ensure you check the size guide before ordering.
Can I use these for long distance walking?
They provide solid support for daily city walking, but they are designed as lifestyle shoes rather than long-distance walking gear.
Troubleshooting
Stiff sole feel during walking
The rubber cupsole requires a brief break-in period; try wearing them for short walks daily to loosen the materials.
Suede looks dull or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean eraser to lift the nap and remove surface dust.
Scuff marks on synthetic leather
Gently clean the affected area with a soft cloth dampened with a mixture of water and a tiny amount of mild dish soap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rapid Court trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the synthetic leather and suede to mold to your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede panels. For synthetic leather, wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
- Protection: Apply a suede-safe water repellent spray to the suede accents to help protect against minor spills and moisture.
- Sizing: These trainers are available in various sizes; ensure a proper fit by measuring your foot with socks on to account for the internal padding.
