FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas BW Army trainers are designed with a regular fit that is generally consistent with standard adult shoe sizing.

Can I use these for running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and lack the performance cushioning required for running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap for light stains, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the leather.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain to prevent water damage or staining to the material.

Does the cupsole provide good traction?

The rubber cupsole provides reliable traction for standard walking on urban surfaces, such as sidewalks and office floors.

Troubleshooting

Creasing at the toe box

This is common with leather footwear. Using shoe trees when not in use helps minimize deep creases and maintain the shape.

Stiff leather feel during initial wear

Break them in gradually by wearing them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas BW Army trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: These trainers follow a regular fit. When trying them on, ensure there is slight wiggle room at the toes while the midfoot feels secure.
  2. Leather Care: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt after each wear. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather-specific conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the material and prevent drying.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to help maintain the original shape of the toe box.
