FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for clay courts?
These Barricade 13 trainers are primarily designed for hard courts. While they may offer some grip on clay, specialized clay court shoes with herringbone or modified patterns are generally recommended for optimal performance and reduced clay build-up.
How do I determine the correct size?
The product description indicates standard sizing. It's recommended to order your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes or prefer more room, consider trying a half-size up or consulting a size chart if available.
What is the purpose of the Repetitor midsole?
The double-density Repetitor midsole provides enhanced cushioning to absorb impact during play and also offers energy return, helping you maintain performance throughout a match.
How durable is the Adiwear outsole?
The Adiwear outsole is engineered for high durability, providing reliable traction on hard courts and resisting wear from aggressive play, thus extending the life of the shoe.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What does 'Brain Dead details' refer to?
'Brain Dead details' refers to the unique graphic elements and branding incorporated from the collaboration with the design collective Brain Dead, giving the shoe a distinctive aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable during initial wear.
This is common for performance footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Consider using slightly thicker socks for the break-in period if the fit is snug.
Traction feels insufficient on court.
Ensure the Adiwear outsole is clean and free from debris, clay, or dust. Wipe the sole with a damp cloth if necessary. Surface conditions can also affect traction.
Tongue or collar feels abrasive.
The Geofit collar is designed for a snug fit. Ensure laces are not overtightened, which can exacerbate pressure points. Continued wear should allow the materials to conform.
Material appears worn at the toe after a few uses.
This is unlikely with normal use due to the Adituff reinforcement. If significant wear is observed very quickly, check for unusual sliding techniques or potential manufacturing defects.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime from the upper and midsole. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
