FAQs
Are the Nike KD 13 EP Aunt Pearl shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
Yes, the EP version of the KD 13 series is designed with a more durable outsole, making it better suited for outdoor surfaces than standard versions.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Never machine wash the sneakers, as this can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe.
Is the KD 13 EP true to size?
The KD 13 generally fits true to size, but because it is a performance basketball shoe, it offers a snug fit. If you prefer more room, some players choose to go up a half size.
What does the 'EP' designation mean?
EP stands for Engineered Performance, which typically features a more durable outsole designed to withstand the abrasive surfaces of outdoor basketball courts.
Can I wear these for casual daily use?
Absolutely. While they are engineered for basketball performance, the Aunt Pearl aesthetic is highly sought after for casual wear.
Does the pink color fade?
To prevent color fading, keep your shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use and store them in a dark, cool environment.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or scuffs on the leather
Use a damp, soft cloth with a tiny amount of mild detergent to spot-clean the affected areas gently.
Feeling of tightness during initial wear
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter sessions until the material molds to your foot.
Reduced traction on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a slightly damp microfiber towel to restore grip before hitting the floor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike KD 13 EP sneakers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is crafted from leather, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes during cleaning. Instead, use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to gently wipe away court dust after every session. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the pink pigment to fade over time. These sneakers come in a variety of UK sizes, so ensure you check your specific fit requirements before wear to maximize the performance benefits of the snug, performance-oriented design.
