FAQs

How Do I Choose the Right Size in K-Swiss Shoes?

Refer to our official Size Guide for exact conversions (US, UK, EU, and CM). If you have wider feet or prefer extra room for performance tennis socks during match play, consider going half a size up.

What Should I Look for in a Good Pair of Tennis Shoes?

A good pair of tennis shoes should support quick changes of direction, provide reliable court traction, and withstand repeated movement. Here are four key features to consider:

Lateral Support: Tennis involves frequent side-to-side movements. Supportive midfoot structures, such as K-Swiss 180 PSC™ or 360 PSC™ technology in select models, help provide stability during quick cuts and changes of direction.
Durable Outsoles: Hard-court play creates repeated friction. K-Swiss AOSTA® rubber outsoles are designed to provide durability and traction on the court.
Cushioning: Midsole technologies such as CMEVA and Surge 7.0, available in select models, are designed to provide cushioning and a responsive underfoot feel.
Toe Protection: Reinforced upper materials, such as Durawrap™ in select models, help protect high-wear areas during demanding court movements.

Consider your playing frequency, court surface, and preferred fit when choosing your next pair.

Can I Wear Tennis Shoes for Everyday Activities?

Yes, but the best choice depends on where and how you plan to wear them.

Lifestyle Shoes: Styles such as the Classic VN and ST329 CMF offer a heritage-inspired look that pairs easily with casual outfits.
Performance Shoes: Models in the Hypercourt and Ultrashot families are designed for court movement, traction, and support. They may also work for some casual activities, depending on your comfort and the shoe's design.

For regular walking or all-day wear, consider cushioning, fit, breathability, and the surfaces you'll be walking on. Tennis shoes designed for court use may feel firmer or heavier than shoes made specifically for walking or running.

What Is the Difference Between Tennis Shoes and Running Shoes?

Tennis shoes are designed for quick side-to-side movements, sudden stops, and changes of direction, with durable outsoles and added lateral support for court play.
Running shoes are built primarily for forward motion, focusing on cushioning and comfort for repetitive strides. For the best fit and performance, choose shoes designed for your intended activity.

How do I care for my K-Swiss shoes?

Regular cleaning can help keep your K-Swiss shoes looking their best. The right method depends on the upper material, so always check the care instructions for your specific pair.

Leather and Synthetic Uppers: Gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth. If needed, use a small amount of mild soap that's suitable for the material.
Mesh and Fabric Uppers: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush, then gently clean with a damp cloth. Avoid aggressive scrubbing that could damage the fabric.
Laces and Insoles: If removable, clean them separately according to their care instructions and allow them to dry completely before reinserting them.
Air-Drying: Let your shoes dry naturally at room temperature in a well-ventilated area.

A Few Things to Avoid:

Avoid machine washing or tumble drying unless the product's care instructions explicitly allow it.
Keep shoes away from direct heat, radiators, and other high-temperature sources.
Avoid harsh cleaners that may damage the materials, finish, or adhesives.
