FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for grass or astroturf?
These trainers are primarily designed for synthetic hockey pitches and artificial grass surfaces.
Are they waterproof?
The upper uses synthetic and textile materials that are durable, but they are not fully waterproof.
Can I use my own orthotic insoles?
Yes, the standard insole is removable, allowing you to swap it for a custom orthotic if required.
How do I determine my correct size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing; it is recommended to measure your foot with athletic socks on for the best fit.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and glue of the trainers; please clean by hand.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping on the pitch
Check the lug outsole for trapped debris or clay; clean the sole with a stiff brush to restore grip.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Re-adjust the lacing tension throughout the eyelets to distribute pressure more evenly across the midfoot.
Odour buildup after use
Remove the insoles after playing to allow the interior to air out fully, or use shoe deodorizing inserts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best performance, ensure the trainers are laced firmly to provide a locked-in feel. While the shoes offer a regular fit, players are advised to wear sports-specific socks to maintain optimal moisture-wicking and comfort. To keep your HOCKEYSTAR trainers in peak condition, remove surface dirt after each game using a soft brush. If the shoes become very muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the adhesive and cushioning materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
