FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
While durable, these trainers are optimized for indoor courts. Extended use on rough outdoor surfaces may accelerate wear and affect performance.
What is the main benefit of the carbon fiber ankle support?
The carbon fiber piece provides enhanced lateral stability and support to the ankle, which is crucial for preventing injuries during quick movements and jumps in basketball.
How do I best break in these trainers?
It's recommended to wear them for short periods around the house or during light practice sessions. This allows the materials to conform to your foot shape gradually.
What does the 'Mint' colorway signify?
The 'Mint' colorway, featuring jade hues and metallic accents, is a tribute to Dwyane Wade's accomplishments and his connection to Miami.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
What size options are available?
These trainers are available in various adult UK men's sizes, including UK 13 as specified.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially and gradually transition to thicker socks. Lace them loosely at first and adjust as the shoe breaks in.
Slight squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try a light dusting of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole, or ensure all laces are tied securely.
Difficulty cleaning the glossy midsole
Use a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and a mild soap. Wipe gently and follow with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
