FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

The Galaxy 8 is optimized for everyday wear and light training. While they offer good support, they are not specifically engineered for high-mileage marathon running.

Can I put these trainers in the dryer?

No, never place your trainers in a dryer. High heat can melt adhesives and damage the cushioning foam.

How do I determine if 9.5 UK is the right size for me?

A proper fit should leave about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural swelling during activity.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

The material is designed for breathability rather than water resistance; they may absorb water in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness around the midfoot

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' style to alleviate pressure points across the top of the foot.

Outer sole picking up debris

Use a toothpick or a dull plastic tool to carefully remove stones or mud from the tread channels after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Galaxy 8 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods indoors for the first few days to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK sizing; ensure you use athletic socks to get an accurate feel for the intended fit.
  3. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesive and foam structure.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration and glue degradation.
