FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?

While the Kobe IX Elite Low EM Protro can be used outdoors, it is primarily designed for indoor court surfaces. Outdoor use may accelerate wear and tear on the outsole.

How do I clean the Flyknit upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the Flyknit upper. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing, as this could damage the material.

What is the lifespan of the cushioning?

The lifespan of the cushioning depends on usage and care. With proper care, the React foam should provide responsive cushioning for a reasonable period.

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the insole is removable and can be replaced with a different insole if desired.

What kind of support does this shoe offer?

The carbon fiber heel piece provides lateral stability, and the Flyknit upper offers a supportive and secure fit.

How should I store these shoes?

Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Loosen the laces or consider going up a half size. The Flyknit material may require some break-in time.

Poor traction on the court.

Wipe the outsole with a clean cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the court surface is clean.

Cushioning feels flat after extended use.

Allow the React foam to recover between uses. Consider using the shoes primarily for basketball to maximize the cushioning performance.
