FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they offer good cushioning and support, they are primarily designed for the lateral movements and impact of basketball. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

What material are the Under Armour Curry 1 Retro 'Dark Matter' made of?

The primary upper material is listed as polyester, with potential use of nylon in some variants, designed for durability and performance.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Under Armour sizing chart for men's footwear and compare your foot measurements. Pay attention to UK sizing as indicated.

Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?

These shoes are not waterproof. While they offer some protection, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and maintain traction.

What is the main difference between this retro version and original Curry 1s?

The 'Dark Matter' retro version maintains the original silhouette and aesthetic while incorporating updated materials and manufacturing techniques for enhanced durability and comfort, though it may not feature the absolute latest cushioning technology found in current signature shoes.

How should I clean the sole of the shoe?

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently scrub the outsole. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow to air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit on arrival

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to naturally break in and conform to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.

Traction seems reduced on dusty courts

Wipe the soles clean with a damp cloth or a dedicated shoe cleaner to remove dust buildup. Sometimes, a quick wipe on a clean court surface can also help restore grip.

Discoloration on the black upper

Ensure cleaning is done with mild soap and water only. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the material finish.
