Troubleshooting

Poor traction on court

Ensure the outsole is clean. Dust and debris can reduce grip. If the issue persists, consider the court surface conditions as extreme dust or polished surfaces can affect performance.

Lack of expected responsiveness

Ensure the shoe is properly broken in. New cushioning systems may require a few wears to adapt to your foot and playing style. Also, confirm the fit is secure, as a loose fit can diminish the feel of responsiveness.

Discomfort during play

Verify that you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Also, ensure the laces are neither too tight nor too loose. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's sizing is correct for your foot shape. The dual foam cushioning is designed for comfort, but personal fit is key.
