The ASICS Upcourt 6 is built for agility and support on indoor courts. The breathable mesh underlays are crucial for maintaining comfort during long matches or training sessions, preventing overheating and discomfort. This allows players to focus on their game without distraction from sweaty feet. The maximum stability feature is paramount for sports like volleyball, badminton, squash, and table tennis, where quick directional changes, lateral slides, and sudden stops are constant. For example, a volleyball player making a quick dive or a badminton player executing a powerful smash relies on this stability to prevent ankle roll and ensure efficient energy transfer. Proper lacing is key to maximizing these benefits; ensure a snug, even fit across your foot, leaving enough room for natural toe splay. These shoes empower athletes to move confidently and react swiftly in fast-paced indoor environments.
Lacing: Before your first use, ensure proper lacing. Start from the bottom eyelets and pull laces evenly to create a snug but not overly tight fit. Use the top eyelets for maximum ankle support if preferred.
Break-In: While designed for comfort, a short break-in period during light activity can help the shoes adapt to your foot shape.
Sports: The ASICS Upcourt 6 is specifically designed for indoor court sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, table tennis, and handball.
Surfaces: Best suited for indoor court surfaces (e.g., wood, synthetic).
Cleaning: To clean your ASICS Upcourt 6, gently wipe any dirt or dust from the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature after use or cleaning. Do not expose them to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers), as this can damage materials.
Odor Control: Remove insoles after use to allow them and the shoe interior to air out. Consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain freshness.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
