Surface Specific: Performance may be less optimal on hard courts or grass courts compared to clay.
Synthetic Material: While durable, the synthetic upper might offer less breathability than mesh-heavy designs.

Proper care extends the life of your Gel-Dedicate 8 Clay sneakers:
Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and clay residue. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Cleaning the Outsole: Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) to remove clay from the grooves of the rubber outsole. This maintains optimal grip.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to maintain shape.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
