FAQs
What sports are the ASICS Upcourt 6 best for?
The ASICS Upcourt 6 is specifically designed for indoor court sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, handball, and table tennis, where quick lateral movements and agility are key.
How should I determine my size for the Upcourt 6?
We recommend trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear during play. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe, and that your heel feels secure without slipping.
Can I use these shoes for outdoor activities or running?
No, these shoes are optimized for indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors or for running may lead to faster wear of the sole and could compromise performance and support designed for indoor play.
How do I clean my ASICS Upcourt 6 shoes?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemicals. Remove insoles and allow shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat.
How often should I replace my indoor court shoes?
The lifespan of court shoes depends on your frequency and intensity of use. Generally, it's recommended to replace them every 6-12 months, or sooner if you notice significant wear in the cushioning, support, or tread.
Do these shoes provide ankle support?
The Upcourt 6 provides good stability for indoor court movements due to its design. While it offers a secure fit, it is a low-cut shoe. For specific ankle support concerns, you may consider ankle braces or higher-cut footwear options, if available.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable during play
Adjust the lacing system to relieve pressure points. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Allow for a short break-in period, as the mesh underlays are designed to adapt to your foot over time.
Foot odor develops after use
After each use, remove insoles and allow the shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Consider using shoe deodorizers or odor-absorbing inserts. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.
Slipping or reduced grip on the court surface
Ensure the shoe soles are clean and free of dust or debris. Wipe soles with a damp cloth before playing if necessary. Also, confirm the court surface itself is clean and dry. These shoes are designed for indoor courts, so check if you are playing on an appropriate surface.
Premature wear on the outsole
The ASICS Upcourt 6 is designed for indoor use. Using them on rough outdoor surfaces will accelerate wear. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose.

Compatibility
These shoes are specifically designed for indoor court sports. This includes activities such as volleyball, badminton, squash, handball, and table tennis. The outsole is engineered to provide optimal grip and non-marking performance on typical indoor court surfaces. They are not recommended for outdoor use, as this can lead to premature wear of the sole and reduce the shoe's intended performance characteristics.
Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your ASICS Upcourt 6 shoes, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry completely after use. Remove the insoles to help with ventilation and prevent odor buildup. Do not place them near direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as this can cause materials to shrink or crack.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing them in damp or humid environments.
- Insole Care: Periodically remove and air out the insoles to maintain freshness. If desired, you can gently hand wash insoles with mild soap and water, ensuring they are thoroughly dry before reinserting.
- Rotation: If you play frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes. This allows each pair to fully dry out and recover, extending their lifespan.
