FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Courtjam Control 3 features a regular fit. While they offer some adaptability through lacing, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them less accommodating than shoes specifically designed for wider widths. Trying them on or checking customer reviews for width feedback is recommended.
What is the main advantage of the Torsion System?
The Torsion System provides enhanced midfoot stability, allowing for smoother transitions between forefoot and hindfoot during movements and rotations on the court. It helps prevent twisting and supports agile play.
How durable is the Adiwear outsole?
The Adiwear outsole is engineered for high-wear areas and is known for its exceptional durability, providing reliable grip and longevity even with frequent and intense use on hard court surfaces.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What does 'contains at least 20% recycled content' mean for performance?
This refers to the materials used in the shoe's construction. It indicates a commitment to sustainability without compromising the performance features like cushioning, support, and durability required for tennis.
How does the Bounce midsole differ from other cushioning technologies?
Bounce is designed to offer a responsive and energized feel, providing good cushioning to absorb shock while also returning energy. It aims for a balance between comfort and dynamic performance suitable for athletic movements.
What is the recommended use case for these trainers?
These trainers are specifically recommended for playing tennis, particularly on hard courts, where stability, support, and durability are essential for quick movements and aggressive play.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few uses.
This is common with new tennis shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure laces are not overtightened. The materials will naturally adapt to your foot shape with use.
Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces.
Check the Adiwear outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the outsole with a damp cloth. If the surface is exceptionally dusty or wet, traction may be temporarily affected.
Laces keep coming undone during play.
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing them with laces that have better grip if this is a persistent problem.
Feet feel warm or sweaty after play.
While the mesh upper is breathable, intense play can still generate heat. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to air out completely after each use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers come ready to wear. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a secure fit before your first use. The regular fit generally accommodates most foot shapes, but a snug lace-up is recommended for optimal performance.
Compatibility: Specifically designed for tennis courts (hard courts, clay courts). While they offer good traction, they are not optimized for running, training, or other athletic activities.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior and remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Laces: Remove laces for deeper cleaning if necessary, and wash them separately by hand.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
