FAQs
What material are these sneakers made from?
The adidas BW Army Lux sneakers are crafted from high-quality leather, ensuring both comfort and durability.
Are these sneakers true to size?
These sneakers are generally true to adidas adult sizing. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for adults, which for this product is UK 5.5.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Regularly wipe the sneakers with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, use a specialized white leather cleaner and consider a protective spray before wear.
Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?
While leather offers some natural resistance, these are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided, or consider applying a water-repellent leather protector for light moisture.

Troubleshooting
White leather appears dirty or stained
Regularly wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper stains, use a specialized white leather cleaner. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Creasing or wrinkles forming on the leather
This is natural with leather wear. Store with shoe trees to help maintain shape. You can also gently condition the leather to keep it supple, but some creasing is unavoidable.
Uncomfortable fit or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size (UK 5.5). New leather shoes may require a break-in period; wear them for shorter periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and applying a small amount of baby powder or fabric softener underneath.

Care & Maintenance
To ensure your white leather sneakers maintain their appearance and longevity, follow these care instructions:
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather before the first wear. This helps protect against spills and dirt.
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a specialist white leather cleaner following the product's instructions.
- Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with soap and water, or replace them if heavily soiled.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuff them with paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape and prevent creasing.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never machine wash leather sneakers, as this can damage the material and construction.
- Scuff Marks: For minor scuffs, a white leather polish or cream can help reduce their visibility.
