FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Adidas Ligra 8 Trainers are designed primarily for indoor court sports and offer good grip and cushioning for those activities. They are not optimized for road running or long-distance running.
What is the benefit of the Adituff toe?
The Adituff toe provides enhanced durability and protection against abrasion, which is particularly useful in sports where players might drag their toes or experience toe-to-court contact.
How much recycled content is in these shoes?
These shoes contain at least 20% recycled content in their construction, contributing to Adidas's commitment to sustainability.
Can I use these shoes for outdoor sports?
These trainers are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors on rough terrain can damage the outsole and reduce their effectiveness.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Lace the shoes securely, adjusting the tension to provide a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure there is adequate room in the toe box without your foot sliding excessively.
What type of court surfaces are these best for?
They are best suited for standard indoor court surfaces like wood, synthetic, or rubberized flooring commonly found in gymnasiums.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a comfortable fit. If the tightness persists, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.
Slipping on the court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the court surface is dusty, it may affect traction.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
The mesh upper is designed for breathability, but ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Allow shoes to air out after use.
Sole showing signs of wear
This is normal with extensive use on indoor courts. For prolonged performance, rotate between pairs of shoes if possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Adidas Ligra 8 Trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them up for a personalized fit. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to allow for comfort and natural foot movement.
Compatibility: These trainers are optimized for indoor court surfaces such as wood, synthetic, or rubberized courts. They are not recommended for outdoor use or rough terrain, as this can compromise the outsole's grip and durability.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the shoes clean with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Never machine wash or tumble dry.
