FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Hexalite cushioning?
Hexalite cushioning provides impact absorption, protecting your feet and joints during high-impact activities like jumping and running.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Hurrikaze II Low OG typically has a standard width fit. If you have wider feet, you may find them snug and might need to consider a break-in period.
Can I wear these shoes for everyday walking?
Yes, the cushioning and supportive design make them comfortable for everyday wear and walking, in addition to basketball.
How should I clean the white leather overlays?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap or a specialized leather cleaner. Wipe gently and dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water stains.
What is the difference between Hurrikaze II and Kamikaze 2?
Hurrikaze II and Kamikaze 2 are often used interchangeably for this model, referencing the same iconic design. This specific product is the Hurrikaze II Low OG.
Do these shoes offer ankle support?
As a low-top shoe, they offer less ankle restriction, prioritizing mobility. They provide general foot support but do not feature high-top ankle bracing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if the fit is slightly snug.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a textured or grippier material if slippage persists.
Difficulty cleaning scuffs or dirt from nubuck
Use a dedicated nubuck eraser or a soft brush to gently lift dirt. For persistent marks, a specialized nubuck cleaner can be applied sparingly.
Reduced grip on the court
Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. If the shoes are heavily worn, the grip may naturally decrease over time.

Care Instructions:
