FAQs
Can I use these trainers for road running?
No, these trainers are specifically engineered for hockey pitches and lack the support and material composition required for road running.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
The Kookaburra Aurora trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to measure your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and adhesives of the shoe. Wipe clean with a damp cloth instead.
Do these trainers require a break-in period?
While they are comfortable out of the box, wearing them for light training sessions before a major match is recommended to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Are these suitable for indoor hockey?
These are optimized for outdoor field surfaces. While they may provide traction on some indoor surfaces, their tread is specifically designed for turf.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on the pitch
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove packed-in dirt or turf debris that may be obstructing the tread pattern.
Foot discomfort during play
Ensure the laces are tensioned evenly across the instep and check that the inner insole is lying flat and not bunched up.
Excessive moisture buildup
Ensure the perforated insole is clear of blockage and consider using performance moisture-wicking socks to assist airflow.
Pros and Cons

- Requires proper sizing check as they are performance-fit
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of sports socks you intend to use during play. Because these are performance-oriented, the fit should be snug without being restrictive around the toes. Compatibility is limited to synthetic turf or grass hockey pitches. For care, remove mud or debris after each session using a soft brush. If the trainers become wet, stuff them with dry paper and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area—avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can warp the midsole material and damage the synthetic upper.
