FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
No, this model is small-fitting. It is generally recommended to order a larger size than your standard shoe size.
Can I use these for outdoor sports?
While durable, the sole is primarily designed for non-marking indoor surfaces. Using them on abrasive outdoor surfaces will accelerate wear on the rubber outsole.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the leather/suede materials. Spot cleaning is recommended.
What is the benefit of the Torsion system?
The Torsion system allows for independent movement of the front and back of the foot, which increases stability and provides better surface adaptation during sports.
Does the shoe leave marks on gym floors?
No, the trainers feature a non-marking rubber sole specifically engineered for indoor court safety.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the lacing system significantly to adjust the width; if discomfort persists, consider a half or full-size increase as this model is known for a snug fit.
Visible scuffs on the suede upper
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry sponge to gently buff the affected area in the direction of the material grain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, test the shoes with the socks you intend to wear for the activity, keeping in mind that this specific model fits smaller than standard.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the suede or leather upper.
- Maintenance: Avoid submerging the shoes in water. Use a professional suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains.
- Storage: Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue to degrade.
- Replacement: Replace the insoles if you notice the cushioning compression no longer provides the necessary shock absorption.
