FAQs

What material are the adidas Originals Taekwondo Mei ballet flats made of?

The primary material for the upper is cotton, featuring a delicate crochet design. The sole is made of gum rubber.

How do I adjust the fit of these ballet flats?

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?

No, these ballet flats are designed for casual wear and fashion. They are not intended for sports or strenuous activities.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

Due to the cotton material and crochet design, it is not recommended to wear these shoes in wet conditions as they can absorb moisture and may be damaged.

How should I clean my Taekwondo Mei ballet flats?

Spot clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Do these flats come in other colors besides white?

The Taekwondo Mei series is available in various colorways, including white and white/gold, and may come in different sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.

What kind of arch support do these flats offer?

These are ballet flats with a low-profile design and do not offer significant arch support. They are primarily focused on style and comfort for casual wear.

Troubleshooting

Fit feels too loose or too tight.

Adjust the wrap-tie fastening. Loosen the ties for a more relaxed fit or tighten them for a more secure feel.

Crochet design snagged or pulled.

Carefully try to smooth out the snagged thread. For minor snags, a fine-tipped tweezers might help gently guide the thread back. Avoid pulling further.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For increased grip on very smooth surfaces, consider a subtle scuffing of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper, or use a shoe grip spray specifically designed for soles.

Material feels stiff after drying.

Gently flex the shoe to soften the material. Wearing them for a short period can also help them mold to your foot.
