FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is primarily made of 100% calf leather.
What is the sole made from?
The sole is constructed from 100% rubber, specifically a gum-rubber sole.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and offer style and comfort for everyday activities. They are not intended for high-impact or performance sports.
How should I clean the green accents?
The green overlays are typically made of leather or a similar material. Clean them using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the origin of the BW Army design?
The adidas Originals BW Army design is inspired by athletic footwear from the 1970s, featuring a vintage leisure charm.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
While this guide focuses on the White/Green colorway, availability of other colors may vary by retailer.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The gum-rubber sole provides some grip, but it is advisable to be cautious in very wet or slippery conditions as they are primarily casual trainers, not waterproof footwear.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or cracking
Ensure shoes are stored properly and avoid over-tightening laces. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the gum-rubber sole with water and a soft brush to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.
Discoloration of leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with appropriate leather cleaners only.
Suede becoming matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Treat stains immediately with a suede cleaner.
