FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for other sports?

These trainers are specifically engineered for tennis, particularly on hard courts. While they offer good support, their design is optimized for the demands of tennis movements.

How do I determine the correct size?

The Barricade 13 trainers fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. You can refer to the size chart for conversions if needed.

What is the main advantage of the Torsion system?

The Torsion system provides enhanced midfoot stability, allowing for quick, multidirectional movements on court without compromising the shoe's structural integrity.

How durable is the outsole?

The Adiwear outsole is designed for high durability and excellent traction on hard courts, resisting wear and tear from intense play.

What does the 'Adituff' reinforcement do?

Adituff is a material reinforcement applied to the toe area, providing increased abrasion resistance to protect against foot dragging and extend the shoe's lifespan.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand clean with a damp cloth as per the care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Traction feels inconsistent

Ensure the Adiwear outsole is clean. Dirt or debris can affect grip. Clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry.

Discomfort during initial wear

The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter sessions initially and gradually increase duration.

Breathability seems limited

Ensure the mesh upper is free from dirt and debris. Regular cleaning can help maintain airflow.
