FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for other sports?

These trainers are specifically designed for the unique demands of padel. While they offer excellent grip and support, their optimal performance is on padel courts. They may not be ideal for sports with different movement patterns or court surfaces.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Measure your foot and compare it to the sizing guide. Ensure your heel is snug, and there is enough room in the toe box for comfortable movement. The lacing and Lockdown Strap system should provide a secure, supportive fit without causing pressure points.

What is the purpose of the MONDO sole?

The sole is developed in collaboration with MONDO, a leader in synthetic turf. It's engineered to provide smooth transitions and reliable 360-degree grip, essential for the quick, multidirectional movements in padel.

How does the Head Lateral Control technology work?

This technology is integrated into the shoe's design to reduce the risk of twists and enhance stability during rapid lateral movements, such as side lunges or quick dodges on the court.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The trainers are designed for dry court conditions. While the HyBrasion+™ compound offers good traction, performance may be reduced on excessively wet surfaces. It is best to allow them to dry thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the primary benefit of the new mesh upper?

The new breathable mesh upper, combined with a padded tongue and soft internal materials, significantly improves ventilation, keeping your feet cooler and more comfortable during intense play.

Troubleshooting

Traction feels less effective than expected.

Ensure the sole is free from debris. Clean the sole with a damp cloth. The HyBrasion+™ compound may require a short break-in period.

Foot feels unstable during lateral movements.

Check lacing for proper tightness. Ensure the Head Lockdown Strap system is engaged correctly. Verify that the shoe size is appropriate for your foot.

Discomfort or rubbing on the ankle or heel.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate sports socks. Adjust the lacing to a more comfortable tension. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the correct fit for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning after extended use.

The EVA midsole provides balanced cushioning. If it feels diminished, consider that natural wear and tear occurs. Ensure you are not over-tightening laces, which can affect the perceived cushioning.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond ensuring they are the correct size and laced securely. The Head Lockdown Strap system should be adjusted for a snug, supportive fit without being overly tight.

Compatibility: Designed specifically for padel courts with artificial turf surfaces. They are intended for adult male players.

Care: To maintain the trainers' performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
  2. Socks: Wear appropriate sports socks to enhance comfort and hygiene.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
  4. Drying: If the trainers become wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to dry thoroughly before the next use.
