FAQs

What is the 'Carbon Core System'?

The Carbon Core System is an internal structure designed to enhance the shoe's stability, providing a solid platform for quick movements and landings while also contributing to energy return.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The fit can be specific; it's recommended to try them on if possible or check reviews regarding fit for wider foot types. While designed for performance, they may not accommodate significantly wide feet without a break-in period.

How do I ensure the best grip?

Keep the outsole clean from dust and debris. The specialized grip pattern works best on clean indoor court surfaces.

What is the main benefit of the low-top design?

The low-top design prioritizes ankle mobility, allowing for a greater range of motion during dynamic basketball plays like crossover dribbles and quick cuts.

Can these shoes be used for running or training outside of basketball?

While they offer good cushioning and support, they are specifically engineered for the demands of basketball. Using them for other activities may lead to premature wear or reduced performance for their intended purpose.

What does 'Pegasus' refer to in the shoe's name?

In this context, 'Pegasus' likely refers to the shoe's design focus on lightness, speed, and responsive performance, evoking the mythical winged horse.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Allow for a break-in period of a few uses. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size, as fit can vary slightly between individuals.

Traction is reduced on certain surfaces

Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris that might be affecting grip. Ensure the court surface is clean.

Noticeable decrease in cushioning or responsiveness

The cushioning technology may naturally wear down over extended use. Ensure the shoes are clean and have not been exposed to excessive heat.

Pros

  • Excellent lightweight feel for agility.

  • Stable platform ideal for quick directional changes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These shoes come ready to wear directly from the packaging. Ensure you have the correct size for the best fit and performance. It's recommended to wear them for a short period initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for indoor basketball courts. While the outsole offers good grip, performance may vary on outdoor or unconventional surfaces.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
