FAQs

How do I clean the leather upper of my Gazelles?

For basic cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt or stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Are these sneakers suitable for sports or running?

No, while the original Gazelle was for indoor sports, the Adidas Gazelle Indoor Sneaker is now primarily a lifestyle shoe. It's designed for casual wear and style, not for high-performance athletic activities or running.

What's the best way to prevent creasing?

To minimize creasing, store your shoes with shoe trees when not in use. Ensure you select the correct size for a proper fit, as ill-fitting shoes can crease more readily. Regular conditioning of the leather also helps maintain its flexibility.

Can I wear my leather Gazelles in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear them in heavy rain, as prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather. For light drizzle, a good quality leather protector spray can offer some resistance, but it's best to avoid getting them saturated.

How do I make my leather shoes last longer?

Regular cleaning, conditioning the leather, proper storage with shoe trees, and avoiding harsh conditions (like heavy rain or extreme heat) are key steps to extending the life of your leather Gazelle sneakers.

Do Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes fit true to size?

Info needed: While many find Adidas Gazelles generally fit true to size, fit can vary slightly between individuals and specific models. It's often recommended to try them on if possible or consult size guides provided by Adidas.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or dry.

Clean the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove any dust. Then, apply a small amount of quality leather conditioner using a clean cloth, buffing gently to restore shine and suppleness.

Visible creases on the leather upper.

While some creasing is natural with wear, using shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers can help maintain their shape. Regular conditioning also helps keep the leather flexible and less prone to deep creases.

Outsole feels slippery or dirty.

Clean the gum rubber outsole regularly with warm water and a mild soap, using a brush to remove trapped dirt and debris. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.

Shoes develop an odor.

Remove insoles if possible and allow them to air out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and let it sit overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Ensure socks are worn to help absorb moisture.

Care Instructions

Proper care for your leather Gazelle sneakers will maintain their premium look and extend their lifespan.

  1. Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its natural sheen.
  3. Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers.
  4. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use.
  5. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially before wearing them in unpredictable weather.
