FAQs
Can I use these shoes on hard courts?
These shoes are designed specifically for clay courts. While they can be worn on other surfaces, the outsole pattern will wear down much faster on hard courts.
Are these suitable for people with wide feet?
The Gel-Resolution series generally offers a stable, standard fit that accommodates a variety of foot shapes, though fit is subjective.
How do I clean the exterior?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt. Avoid submerging the shoe in water.
Does this model provide arch support?
Yes, the structural design of the Gel-Resolution includes midfoot support to assist with stability and posture during lateral movements.
What is the weight of the shoe?
While exact weight varies by size, these are classified as performance stability trainers, prioritizing support over ultra-lightweight designs.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the court
Check the outsole for compacted clay or debris and clean the grooves with a stiff brush.
Discomfort during long sessions
Ensure the shoe is tied securely to prevent slipping; if issues persist, consider replacing the factory insole with an orthopedic-grade insert.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that your size is consistent with the standard UK 8.5 fitting. Before your first session, ensure the laces are properly tensioned to lock the midfoot in place. For ongoing care, remove excess clay after each use by tapping the outsoles together or using a soft brush. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized adhesive and foam properties. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the materials.
