FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?

No, these are specifically designed as 'IC' (Indoor Court) trainers. They will wear out quickly and lack proper grip on outdoor turf or grass.

How do I clean the white material?

Use a mild soap and a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away marks. Avoid harsh chemicals that may discolor the fabric.

Does this model provide ankle support?

The Tiempo Legend 9 Academy is a low-cut trainer, meaning it does not offer high-ankle support. It focuses on mobility and freedom of movement.

Can I use these for school physical education or general gym use?

Yes, their non-marking outsoles and comfortable fit make them suitable for general indoor gym activities.

What is the best way to store these between games?

Store them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and odors.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during play

Use a double knot or replace with performance-grip laces to ensure a tighter hold during intense activity.

Accumulation of dust on the outsole reducing grip

Wipe the soles with a damp cloth or a specialized cleaning brush to remove court dust and restore traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on indoor court surfaces
  • Lightweight feel promotes faster movement
  • Stylish white and blue colorway from the Blast Pack

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Tiempo Legend 9 Academy IC trainers last through the season, follow these best practices:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the UK size 8 provides enough room for your toes while remaining snug across the midfoot.
  2. Surface Compatibility: Only wear these shoes on indoor hard courts. Wearing them on asphalt or concrete will significantly degrade the grip.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe away dust and debris after every game using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  4. Drying: Air dry the shoes in a cool, shaded area. Never use a heater or tumble dryer, as heat can deform the materials and compromise the adhesive.
