FAQs

How do I clean the 'Super Moon Yellow' color?

For the suede parts, use a dedicated suede brush and eraser. For mesh, a soft damp cloth with mild soap is effective. Always air dry away from direct sunlight.

Are these sneakers comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes, the 'Feet You Wear' inspired midsole provides excellent cushioning and support, making them comfortable for extended casual wear.

Can I wear them in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear these sneakers in heavy rain due to the suede material, which can be damaged by water. Apply a water-resistant suede protector for light moisture protection.

What makes the Yeezy 500 unique?

Its unique design blends retro basketball aesthetics with modern streetwear, featuring a distinct chunky silhouette, premium materials, and an adiPRENE+ cushioned 'Feet You Wear' inspired sole.

What size should I get?

The Yeezy 500 typically fits true to size. If you are a UK 5 in other adidas sneakers, your usual size should be appropriate. However, personal preference for fit may vary.

When was the 'Super Moon Yellow' colorway originally released?

The 'Super Moon Yellow' colorway was originally released in December 2017 in a very limited release, and later made available to the general public.

Is the 'Feet You Wear' technology still active?

While the original 'Feet You Wear' technology of the 90s has evolved, the Yeezy 500's midsole design is inspired by its principles to provide a similar stable and responsive feel.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Brush in one direction for a uniform look.

Stains on suede

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. For dried stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner following product instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Yellowing of the sole/midsole

This can be a natural process over time. For light yellowing, some users apply specialized sole whitening products, but always proceed with caution and research, as results can vary.

Uncomfortable fit/rubbing

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider trying different lacing techniques or shoe inserts for a more customized fit. Verify correct size.

Creasing in the upper

Creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers. Avoid folding or crushing them during storage.

Care:

  2. Regular Cleaning:
  • For Suede: Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. For minor scuffs, use a suede eraser.
  • For Mesh: Wipe with a damp, soft cloth using a mild soap solution if necessary.
  • For Midsole/Outsole: Use a sneaker cleaning solution and a brush to scrub away dirt.
  1. Spot Treatment: Address stains immediately. For suede, use specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the material.
  2. Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage or fading.
