Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently wipe the synthetic leather areas, then wipe clean with water and air dry.

Do they provide arch support?

Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long sessions
Ensure you are using the correct size and that the laces are providing even tension across the instep without cutting off circulation.
Outsole losing grip
Check the tread for debris or clay build-up; clear out the grooves to restore maximum friction on the court surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Dedicate 8 sneakers, avoid using them on abrasive outdoor surfaces like concrete, as these can wear down the specialized outsole prematurely. For care, wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth after every use. If the shoes become damp, remove the insoles and allow them to air dry in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing, as the high heat and agitation can compromise the adhesive and structural integrity of the leather overlays.
