FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The OWNTHEGAME 3.0 Trainers are designed with a regular fit. While the lace closure allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them less comfortable than models specifically designed for wider fits.
Can I wear these for running?
These trainers are optimized for court sports and training, featuring LIGHTMOTION cushioning and an Adiwear outsole for stability and traction on courts. They are not specifically designed for the repetitive impact of long-distance running, which typically requires specialized running shoe cushioning and support.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure and not slip excessively when you walk or pivot. Trying them on, ideally at the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen, is recommended.
What is the main difference between OWNTHEGAME 3.0 and previous versions?
The OWNTHEGAME 3.0 typically features updated LIGHTMOTION cushioning for improved comfort and responsiveness, alongside the durable Adiwear outsole and enhanced stability features like the rubberised heel clip.
How durable is the Adiwear rubber outsole?
Adiwear is a highly durable, non-marking rubber compound developed by adidas specifically to resist wear and tear, especially in high-abrasion areas of the outsole, providing long-lasting grip.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand cleaning with a soft brush and mild soap is the preferred method.
Troubleshooting
Traction is poor on court.
Ensure the Adiwear rubber outsole is clean and free from dust and debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth if necessary. Excessive wear on the outsole may also reduce traction.
Cushioning feels stiff.
The LIGHTMOTION cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Gentle flexing of the shoes can also help.
Heel feels unstable.
Ensure the laces are tied securely, paying attention to the heel collar area. The rubberised heel clip is designed for support; if instability persists, consider if the shoe size is appropriate or if a different model with more specific ankle support is needed.
Materials feel tight or uncomfortable.
The synthetic and textile upper may require some break-in time. Wear them around the house for a few hours to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Designed primarily for indoor court surfaces such as basketball courts. While the Adiwear outsole offers good traction, performance on outdoor courts, rough surfaces, or very dusty conditions may vary.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to clean the synthetic and textile upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
