FAQs
What material is the K-SWISS Court Base II made of?
The K-SWISS Court Base II trainers feature a leather upper, a textile collar lining, and a rubber outsole with a die-cut EVA sockliner.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. They are not specialized for high-impact sports like running or basketball, though they offer good general support for walking and everyday activities.
How do I clean the perforated stripes?
You can clean the perforated stripes using a soft, damp cloth. For dirt lodged within the perforations, a soft brush like an old toothbrush can be used gently.
What does the 'Court Base II' designation signify?
The 'Court Base II' indicates a revised version of the original 'Court Base' model, featuring subtle updates while maintaining its core design and recognizable K-SWISS court sneaker aesthetic.
Can I replace the EVA sockliner?
Yes, the die-cut EVA sockliner is typically removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired for personalized comfort or support.
What is the intended fit of these trainers?
These trainers are designed for a standard adult male fit. The full-length eyestay and slightly padded tongue allow for adjustment to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness occurs.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For increased grip on very smooth surfaces, consider a light scuffing of the sole or applying a grip-enhancing spray specifically designed for footwear.
Leather shows minor scuffs or marks
Use a leather conditioner or a matching color polish to buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, professional leather repair services might be considered.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct UK size for a proper fit.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are versatile for casual wear with a wide range of clothing styles, including jeans, shorts, and casual trousers.
Care:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a buff with a dry cloth.
- Lining and Insoles: If the insoles become soiled, they can often be removed and gently hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried completely. Ensure the interior is dry before reinserting.
- Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove accumulated debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the material's integrity. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
