FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

Troubleshooting
Creasing on patent leather
Creasing is natural with patent leather use. To minimize its appearance, avoid over-bending the shoe and store them upright.
Squeaking sound
Check if the insole is properly seated or if moisture is trapped. Try removing the insole, drying both it and the inside of the shoe, then reinserting the insole.
Dirt on Swoosh branding
Use a soft, damp cloth or a magic eraser very gently on the 'Grape Ice' Swoosh to avoid discoloration.
