FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?

The adidas Tobacco Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for high-performance athletic activities or sports. Their construction prioritizes style and everyday comfort over specialized athletic support.

How can I prevent water damage to the suede?

The best way to prevent water damage is to apply a high-quality waterproof suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time, and reapply periodically. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended for suede trainers. The harsh cycle and water can damage the suede material, alter its texture, and potentially affect the shoe's structure. Always opt for manual cleaning methods specific to suede.

What is the best way to store my trainers to maintain their shape?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees made of cedar wood can help absorb moisture and maintain the shoe's original shape, preventing creases.

How do I ensure I have the correct size (UK 11)?

For the most accurate fit, it's recommended to consult the official adidas size guide, which often provides measurements in centimeters or inches. If trying them on, ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Do adidas Tobacco Trainers come in other materials or colors?

Yes, the adidas Tobacco series often releases in various materials such as leather and different colorways. This particular guide focuses on the brown suede variant, but other options may be available.

How often should I clean the suede upper?

The frequency of cleaning depends on how often you wear them and the conditions you expose them to. Regular light brushing after each wear can prevent dirt buildup. Deep cleaning should be done as needed for stains or significant dirt.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush away surface dirt and restore the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective.

Water stains on suede

If the stain is fresh, gently blot with a clean cloth. For dried water stains, lightly dampen the entire affected area with a very fine mist of water, then brush evenly with a suede brush, and let it air dry naturally.

Scuffs or marks on the gum sole

Clean the gum sole with a soft brush, a damp cloth, and a small amount of mild soap or shoe cleaner. Wipe away any residue.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

Wear your trainers for short periods around the house to gradually break them in. The suede upper will soften and mold to your foot over time, improving comfort.

Laces get dirty quickly

Remove the laces and hand wash them with a mild detergent and warm water. Air dry completely before re-threading.

Care Instructions for Suede:

Suede requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity. Following these steps will help keep your trainers looking their best:

  1. Initial Protection: Before the first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction to maintain consistency.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For minor marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser. Gently rub the eraser over the mark.
  4. Deep Cleaning (for stains): For more stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner designed for footwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave lasting marks.
  5. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Air dry them naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators) or direct sunlight, which can cause cracking or fading.
  6. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help them retain their shape and absorb moisture.
  7. Sole Care: The gum sole can be cleaned with a soft brush, a damp cloth, and a mild soap solution to remove dirt and scuffs.
