FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all tennis court surfaces?
These trainers are specifically designed for optimal performance and stability on hard courts. While they may offer some traction on other surfaces, their design and features are best suited for the hard court environment.
How do I clean my adidas Barricade 13 trainers?
Clean the trainers using a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid using strong detergents or placing them in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Yes, the adidas x Brain Dead Barricade 13 trainers are designed to fit true to size. It is recommended to order your usual UK shoe size.
What is the purpose of the Adituff reinforcement?
The Adituff reinforcement is a durable material applied to the toe area of the trainers to provide enhanced resistance against abrasion, which is common from toe-dragging during play.
How does the Torsion system benefit my game?
The Torsion system offers stability across the midfoot, allowing for more freedom of movement in the forefoot and rearfoot. This enhances stability during quick cuts and prevents twisting.
What makes the Brain Dead collaboration special?
The collaboration with Brain Dead adds unique co-branding and design elements to the trainers, creating a distinctive and stylish aesthetic beyond the standard performance features.
Can I wear these for activities other than tennis?
While the advanced features are optimized for tennis, the cushioning and support might make them comfortable for general training or athletic activities. However, they are not specifically designed for other sports.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are not overly tightened, particularly around the forefoot. The materials will mold to your foot shape over time.
Lack of grip on court.
Ensure the Adiwear outsole is clean and free from debris, clay, or dust. If the court surface is wet or particularly dusty, grip may be reduced.
Discomfort in the heel area.
Verify that the Geofit collar and heel inserts are properly positioned around your ankle. Adjust lacing to ensure a secure heel lock without excessive pressure. The heel inserts are designed to provide a snug fit.
Toe area shows excessive wear.
While the Adituff reinforcement provides protection, aggressive toe-dragging can still cause wear. Try to adjust your footwork to minimize excessive toe contact with the court surface.
