To use these K1 Pilot 2 Karting Shoes, simply put them on like you would with any regular shoes before getting on the kart. Make sure they fit snugly to get the best pedal feel. When you're out on the track, you'll notice how the sole gives you great grip for precise throttle and braking. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Keep them in a cool, dry place. Don't expose them to extreme heat or direct sunlight for long periods as it might damage the materials. Also, check the sole regularly for any signs of excessive wear. If you notice any issues, it might be time to replace them to ensure your safety and performance on the track.
