FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports activities?

No, the adidas Japan Trainers are specifically designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer cushioning, they are not engineered for the high-impact demands of running or intense athletic sports.

How do I clean the white leather part of my trainers?

For the white leather, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the surface to remove dirt. For more stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied according to its instructions. Always allow to air dry.

Can I put my adidas Japan Trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is strongly discouraged. It can damage the leather and suede materials, affect the adhesive, and potentially alter the shape and fit of the trainers. Always hand clean them as per the care instructions.

What materials are used in the construction of these trainers?

These trainers feature a premium leather upper with distinct suede panels for added texture and style. They are equipped with a soft EVA cushioned midsole for comfort.

How can I protect the suede panels from water and stains?

Before the first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather and suede. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Are these trainers true to size?

adidas trainers generally run true to size for adults. However, for the most accurate fit, we recommend consulting the official adidas sizing chart and measuring your foot if unsure.

How should I store my trainers when not in use?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees made of cedar or plastic can help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture, preventing odours.

Troubleshooting

White leather appears dull or has minor scuffs

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, use a mild leather cleaner or a specialized white shoe polish/cream to restore luster.

Suede panels look matted, dirty, or discolored

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction to remove surface dirt and restore texture. For stains, apply a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable during initial wears

The premium leather may require a brief break-in period. Wear the trainers for shorter durations initially to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot's shape.

Unpleasant odour develops inside the trainers

Ensure trainers are fully air-dried after each use. Insert shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb moisture and odours. Replace insoles if necessary.

Laces become dirty or worn

Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water, then air dry. Alternatively, replace them with new adidas laces of the appropriate length.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial for maintaining the pristine condition and longevity of your leather and suede trainers:

  1. Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth.
  2. Leather Upper: For the premium leather, wipe clean with a damp cloth using mild soap and water. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to its instructions.
  3. Suede Panels: Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your trainers as this can damage the leather, suede, and midsole integrity.
  5. Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, which can cause cracking or shrinking of materials.
  6. Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede before the first wear and periodically thereafter.
  7. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
