Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are water-resistant and designed to handle wet turf conditions, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
While they provide good stability for lifting, the outsole is specifically designed for turf and may be too firm for extensive treadmill use or comfort-focused gym activities.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
The Adipower Hockey 99 follows standard adult sizing, but due to the performance lockdown fit, some players prefer a half-size larger if they wear very thick hockey socks.
How do I best clean the trainers after a muddy game?
Allow the mud to dry, tap the soles together to loosen particles, brush off the remaining dirt, and wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth.
Are these suitable for indoor hockey?
These are primarily designed for outdoor artificial turf; indoor hockey typically requires non-marking gum rubber soles.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tightened specifically through the midfoot eyelets and consider using a runner's loop for extra heel security.
Outsole losing grip
Check the tread for embedded debris or buildup of synthetic turf pellets and clean thoroughly with a stiff brush.
Upper material showing scuffs
This is common in hockey; wipe with a damp cloth to remove grit and ensure the integrity of the material is not compromised by deep cuts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks that complement the shoe's internal fit. These trainers are strictly designed for hockey field surfaces; using them on concrete or hardwood may accelerate outsole wear and reduce grip. To care for your trainers, remove excess turf debris or mud after every session using a soft brush. If cleaning is required, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the synthetic materials.
