The ASICS Upcourt 6 Indoor Trainers are engineered to excel in dynamic indoor court environments. Their high-quality synthetic upper provides a snug, supportive fit that locks your foot in place during rapid directional changes, crucial for sports like volleyball where sudden stops and jumps are common.
The breathable mesh underlays work to keep your feet cool and comfortable, even during extended matches or intense training sessions in handball or squash. This adaptable fit prevents discomfort and rubbing, allowing you to maintain focus on your game.
The standout feature is the anti-slip profile on the 100% rubber outsole. This design delivers maximum traction across various indoor court surfaces, giving you the confidence to push off, pivot, and land securely without fear of slipping. For example, during a volleyball spike, the enhanced grip allows for explosive take-offs and stable landings. Similarly, in squash, the traction ensures quick lateral movements and lunges are executed with precision. The flat heel further contributes to stability, promoting a natural stance and efficient power transfer.
To maximize performance, ensure laces are tied securely but not overly tight, allowing for foot expansion during activity while maintaining support. Always use these trainers exclusively for indoor court sports to preserve the specialized outsole and optimize grip.
Lace Up Securely: Before each use, ensure your trainers are laced up firmly but comfortably. This provides the optimal secure fit for stability and support during quick movements.
Check Sizing: As noted, international sizing can vary. Always try on your trainers to ensure they fit correctly, allowing a small amount of space at the toe and a snug feel around the midfoot.
These trainers are specifically designed for indoor court sports. They are ideal for:
Volleyball
Handball
Squash
Using them on outdoor surfaces or for general athletic activities may reduce the effectiveness of the specialized anti-slip outsole and could lead to premature wear.
Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and sweat after each use. For mesh areas, use a soft brush.
Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles (if removable) and air them out. Odor-absorbing inserts can also be used.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the outsole for signs of excessive wear or damage, especially in high-traction areas, to ensure continued maximum grip and safety.
