FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for grass fields?
While the outsole is designed for turf, it provides decent grip on dry grass, though it is optimized for synthetic hockey pitches.
Can I remove the insole?
The insole is designed to be part of the shoe's cushioning system; removing it may affect the fit and support.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent fraying the fabric.
What is the best way to store them?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to protect the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The mesh construction is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They may allow water in if playing on wet grass or in the rain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling slippery on turf
Check the outsole for compacted dirt or sand and clean with a soft brush to restore grip.
General discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing tightness and ensure the socks being worn are of an appropriate thickness for athletic use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Kookaburra Orbit shoes, always lace them firmly before play to prevent internal movement. After each use, remove any loose dirt or turf pellets from the outsole to maintain grip effectiveness. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the foam density in the EVA midsole. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, which can cause the materials to stiffen or warp over time.
