FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

Do they fit true to size?

Can I put these in the washing machine?

Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dry or stiff
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore suppleness and prevent cracking.
Creasing at the toe box

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas BW Army trainers maintain their condition, perform regular surface cleaning with a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Because of the leather construction, it is recommended to use a specialized leather cleaner periodically and avoid machine washing, which can damage the material integrity. Ensure the shoes are kept away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. If they become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature with the laces loosened.
