FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Superstar II trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and offer moderate support. They are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running, which require specialized running shoes.
How do I clean the shell toe?
The rubber shell toe can typically be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a non-abrasive cleaner can be used.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protectant spray can offer additional resistance.
What is the main difference between Superstar and Superstar II?
The Superstar II often features slight updates in materials or construction compared to the original Superstar, though both maintain the iconic design elements like the shell toe and three stripes.
How should I store my trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper can help them maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the adidas Originals Superstar II and related Superstar models are available in a wide variety of colors and material combinations.
What size should I order if I'm between sizes?
Given that they are leather and may stretch slightly, some users prefer to size down if they are between sizes for a snugger fit. However, trying them on or consulting a size chart is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thin socks for a short period to allow the leather to stretch. You can also try using a shoe stretcher or wearing them around the house for a few hours each day.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural for leather. Ensure the shoes are stored properly with shoe trees or stuffed with paper to maintain their shape when not in use.
Outsole showing wear
Minor wear can be addressed by a cobbler. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary. Regular cleaning of the outsole can help maintain its grip.
Perforations are blocked
Gently clear any debris from the perforations using a soft brush or toothpick.
