FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the leather upper provides some protection against light moisture, these are not waterproof shoes and should be treated with a leather protector spray if you plan to wear them in damp conditions.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert your own orthotics or replacement insoles if desired.
How do I clean the rubber cupsole?
Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water to scrub the rubber sides, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Do these sneakers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for a regular fit, but leather can stretch slightly over time to accommodate your foot shape.
Is the leather upper genuine?
Yes, these trainers feature high-quality leather construction for the upper and lining.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its crackled texture
Apply a light coat of leather conditioner designed for heritage or distressed leathers to restore the natural oils and finish.
Shoe feels too tight across the bridge
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the eyelets at the midfoot to allow more volume, or wear thinner socks during the initial break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adidas BW Army Trainers maintain their look, use a high-quality leather conditioner specifically formulated for textured or cracked finishes. Avoid exposing the leather to harsh cleaning chemicals. For daily cleaning, simply wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth. To maintain the shape of the shoe when not in use, consider inserting wooden shoe trees. These trainers fit true to size; however, because they feature a regular fit, those with wider feet may find the narrow-to-medium silhouette requires slight adjustment through the lacing system.
