FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

While inspired by a 1964 trainer, the Adidas Japan sneakers are designed primarily for casual wear and style, not for intensive running or high-performance sports.

How do I clean the perforated leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner. For the perforations, a soft brush or toothpick can carefully remove any lodged dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the material of the shoe's upper?

The upper is crafted from tumbled, perforated leather, providing both a premium feel and enhanced breathability.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Adidas sizing can vary. Generally, these shoes offer a low-profile fit. It's recommended to consult the Adidas size chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper is not inherently waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, it's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions to protect the leather. A leather protector spray can offer some resistance.

What does 'low-profile design' mean?

A 'low-profile design' refers to a sleek, slender silhouette with a relatively thin sole, giving the shoe a minimalist and close-to-the-ground feel.

Are there different color options available?

This specific model is the White Adidas Japan sneaker. Other color variants of the Japan series may be available, but this guide focuses on the white leather version.

Where were these shoes originally inspired from?

These sneakers are a reissue of a 1964 trainer, inspired by the global sporting event held in Tokyo that year, staying true to its original design.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or marks on the white leather

Gently clean with a soft, damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. For minor scuffs, a white leather conditioner or polish can help.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder underneath, and then replacing the insole.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure laces are not overtightened. Leather can stretch slightly over time with wear. If persistent, consider using thinner socks or consulting a sizing guide.

Loss of shape over time

Use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers to help maintain their original form. Avoid storing them in cramped spaces.
