Product Information
Full details
The Adidas Yeezy BSKTBL Knit Slate Onyx is designed for athletes and style enthusiasts who demand a fusion of court-ready functionality and high-fashion aesthetics. Its key benefit lies in the adaptive Primeknit upper and responsive underfoot cushioning that provides both agility and comfort during high-intensity movement. One caveat potential users should note is the high-top silhouette and sock-like construction, which requires a specific break-in period and may feel restrictive for those accustomed to low-profile footwear.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
Yes, they feature a durable rubber outsole capable of handling pavement, though indoor use will extend the life of the grip.
Does the Primeknit upper stretch over time?
Yes, the knit material will naturally adapt to your foot shape after the initial break-in period.
How should I clean the Slate Onyx colourway?
Use a soft brush and mild soap solution for the knit, and a damp cloth for the TPU shell. Do not machine wash.
Is the ankle support effective for sports?
The extended collar is specifically designed to provide additional structural support and confidence during lateral movements.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the shoes are designed with specific internal geometry, you can replace the insoles with thin, performance-oriented options if needed.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight or restricted
Ensure the laces are fully loosened during entry, and allow the Primeknit material time to stretch and conform to your foot shape over several wears.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Use the pull tabs located at the collar to evenly distribute tension while sliding your foot in, or use a shoe horn to assist with the heel passage.
Outsole losing traction on court
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a dedicated court-cleaning wipe to remove accumulated dust or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because of the sock-like construction, users may find it helpful to use a shoe horn during the initial few wears until the collar material softens. To ensure compatibility, ensure you select your true-to-size fit, as the snug nature of the Primeknit upper is intended to hug the foot closely. For care, keep the trainers away from abrasive surfaces that might snag the knit threads. If the upper gets dirty, gently hand-wash using mild detergent and cold water, then air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent deforming the knit or the TPU components.
