FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While they feature basketball-inspired aesthetics, they are intended for lifestyle and casual wear rather than competitive court sports.
How do I clean the synthetic leather parts?
A simple wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap is sufficient for the synthetic leather portions.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Rapid Court series generally fits true to standard UK sizing; however, individual fit can vary based on foot width.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede materials and compromise the adhesive used in the cupsole.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The materials are water-resistant to a degree but are not waterproof; it is advised to avoid heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the suede accents
Use a dry, soft suede brush to gently lift dirt particles. Do not use water.
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before entry and consider re-lacing to allow for more volume in the tongue area.
Loss of grip on the sole
Wipe the rubber cupsole with a damp cloth to remove buildup of dust or debris that can interfere with traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Out of the box, the Rapid Court Low shoes require minimal break-in time due to the flexible synthetic upper. To ensure long-term durability, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust from the synthetic leather surfaces.
- Suede Care: For the suede accents, use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap; avoid using liquid cleaners directly on suede as it can cause discoloration.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the black material.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help them retain their shape while air-drying; never place them directly on a heater or radiator.
