FAQs

What is the material of the shoe's upper?

The K Swiss Court Blast Tennis Shoes feature a durable synthetic 'leather-look' upper. This material provides the aesthetic of leather while offering robust performance.

Are these shoes suitable for all tennis court surfaces?

Yes, the grip patterning and sole construction of the Court Blast are designed to provide effective traction and support on various tennis court surfaces, including hard courts, clay, and grass.

How should I clean my K Swiss Court Blast shoes?

For the upper, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the sole, use a stiff brush and water to remove dirt. Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight.

Do these shoes offer good ankle support?

The K Swiss Court Blast features a padded collar that provides comfort and a degree of ankle support. The lace-up fastening also allows for a secure fit to enhance stability around the ankle during dynamic movements.

What is the purpose of the 'chunky sole'?

The chunky sole is designed to offer enhanced cushioning for superior comfort and impact absorption. It also contributes to the shoe's ability to support explosive acceleration and improved maneuverability on the court.

Should I order my usual shoe size?

Generally, K Swiss shoes tend to fit true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size for optimal comfort, especially with athletic socks.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially

Like most athletic shoes, the Court Blast may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter periods during practice sessions to allow the materials to conform to your foot. Ensure your laces are not overtightened.

Slipping on the court surface

Check the soles for excessive wear, dirt, or debris. Clean the grip patterns thoroughly with a brush and water. Ensure the court surface itself is clean and dry. If wear is significant, consider replacement.

Feet feel hot or sweaty during play

While the shoes have side perforations for ventilation, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking athletic socks. Allow shoes to air out completely between uses. Regularly clean and air out insoles.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are tying your laces securely with a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new athletic shoelaces of appropriate length.

Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the synthetic 'leather-look' upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. 2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) and water to remove dirt and clay from the grip patterns on the sole. 3. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as this can damage the materials. 4. Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees to maintain freshness. 5. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures.
