The shoe features a textile base, a neoprene layer over the toe box and sides, and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) for the oversized 3-Stripes and heel support. The midsole contains a Fear of God patch.
Is this shoe suitable for actual basketball games?

How should I clean the tan clay colorway?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water for the textile and neoprene. Wipe TPU and midsole with a damp cloth. Always air dry away from heat.

The key design feature is the modern interpretation of the adidas logo, with oversized and slanted 3-Stripes prominently displayed on the sides of the shoe.

What does the Fear of God patch signify?
The patch on the heel signifies the collaboration between adidas and the luxury fashion brand Fear of God, highlighting the exclusive nature of the design.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight upon first wear.
The neoprene layer may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short intervals initially to allow them to adapt to your foot shape.
Difficulty pulling the shoe on.
Utilize the heel pull tab. Ensure the sock-like collar is not bunched up around the ankle before sliding your foot in.
Marks or dirt on the light clay color.
Address stains promptly using the recommended cleaning methods. A suede eraser can be effective on suede-like textures if present, and a damp cloth with mild soap for other areas.
Discomfort during prolonged wear.
Verify that the correct size has been selected. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's construction is suitable for your foot type (e.g., width).
