FAQs
Can I use these shoes for running on concrete?
These shoes are designed for field hockey turf; frequent use on hard concrete may wear down the specialized outsole traction prematurely.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They feature breathable mesh for airflow, meaning they are not waterproof and may let in water in very wet conditions.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush and a damp cloth. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the glue and materials from degrading.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles can be removed for cleaning or to accommodate custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole losing grip
Clean the outsole pattern with a stiff brush to remove compacted dirt and debris that can impede traction.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened at the bridge of the foot and check that your socks are not too thick.
Odour buildup
Remove the insoles after play and store the shoes in a well-ventilated area to allow moisture to evaporate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, pair these trainers with sports-specific hockey socks. When the shoes become dirty, gently remove surface mud with a soft brush once it has dried. Wipe down the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping. Periodically check the outsole for debris to maintain consistent traction on the field.
