FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for grass pitches?
These shoes are designed primarily for synthetic hockey turf; while they provide some grip on grass, they perform best on specialized hockey surfaces.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the Kookaburra Orbit series is designed as unisex footwear for adults.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of durable PU (polyurethane) and mesh for a mix of support and breathability.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which is helpful for cleaning or if you need to insert personal orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the pitch
Clear any debris or synthetic turf rubber caught in the outsole grip patterns.
Discomfort or pinching at the toe
Ensure your hockey socks are not too thick; if the issue persists, ensure the laces are not tightened excessively across the forefoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Kookaburra Orbit hockey shoes, ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of sports socks to match the UK size 4 fit. If the shoes become wet or muddy during play, remove the insoles and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials. Wipe down the mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove grit or debris after each session. Check the outsoles periodically for any embedded pebbles or hockey turf rubber, as these can reduce traction and cause uneven wear.
