The ASICS Upcourt 6 is engineered to enhance performance in indoor court environments such as volleyball, badminton, squash, and pickleball. Its lightweight design allows for quick lateral movements and agility, crucial for reacting to fast-paced play. The flexible construction supports the foot's natural bending, aiding in explosive jumps and swift directional changes without restriction.
The broad mesh paneling and breathable underlays work together to provide consistent ventilation, managing heat and moisture buildup, which is essential for maintaining comfort during long matches or training sessions.

Proper care extends the life and performance of your Upcourt 6 sneakers:
Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the mesh and synthetic surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp.
Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes to absorb odors.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in cramped spaces where they might lose their shape.
Sole Care: Regularly inspect the outsole for embedded dirt or debris that could affect traction. Clean with a brush if necessary.
