FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made from 100% other materials, typically a durable synthetic construction.
Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball games?
The Hoops Classic Trainers are designed with a classic basketball-inspired aesthetic for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not intended for high-performance professional basketball.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Wipe the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% rubber, providing reliable grip and traction.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand cleaning as described in the care section is advised.

Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. Tighten or loosen the laces as needed for a personalized fit. Ensure the laces are tied securely.
Slight discomfort on first wear
This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider wearing thicker socks if the fit feels slightly loose.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. While designed for grip, all rubber soles have limitations on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Use caution.
Odour develops over time
Allow the shoes to air out thoroughly between wears. Consider using deodorizing insoles or sprays. Ensure they are completely dry after cleaning.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Hoops Classic Trainers:
- Cleaning the Uppers: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Lining: Ensure the inside is kept dry. If necessary, use a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
- Cleaning the Sole: Brush off loose dirt with a dry brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as these can damage the materials.
