FAQs

Are these suitable for sports?

While the Superstar II has basketball roots, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and streetwear sneaker for everyday casual wear and comfort. It is not recommended for high-performance sports or activities requiring specialized athletic footwear.

How do I determine my size?

The adidas Superstar II generally fits true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size for optimal comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather sneakers as it can damage the material, adhesives, and overall structure. Hand-clean using methods described in the care section to preserve their quality.

What material is the upper made from?

The upper of the adidas Superstar II is crafted from premium leather, offering both durability and a sleek aesthetic. This material contributes to its classic look and comfortable fit.

Does it offer good arch support?

The Superstar II provides standard cushioning for all-day comfort. For individuals requiring specific arch support, custom insoles can often be used to enhance comfort and provide personalized support.

Is the shell toe functional or just decorative?

The iconic rubber shell toe is both a signature aesthetic element of the Superstar design and offers a degree of protection for the toes against minor impacts, making it both stylish and practical.

How often should I clean them?

For white leather sneakers, it's beneficial to wipe them down after each wear to prevent dirt buildup. A deeper clean can be done as needed, typically every few weeks or once a month, depending on usage and exposure to dirt.

Troubleshooting

White leather appears dirty or scuffed quickly.

Regularly wipe the sneakers with a damp cloth after wear to prevent dirt buildup. For stubborn marks, use a sneaker cleaner specifically designed for leather and rubber. Consider applying a stain and water repellent spray upon initial use.

Slippage on wet surfaces.

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, extreme wet or icy conditions can still be challenging. Exercise caution on slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole tread is clean, as accumulated dirt can reduce traction.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the insole and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinsert the insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

No special setup is required. Simply unlace the sneakers, insert your foot, and re-lace for a comfortable, secure fit. Adjust the laces to prevent pinching or excessive loosenness.

Compatibility

These sneakers are highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of casual wardrobes. They pair well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and tracksuits. Their classic white color makes them an easy match for most color palettes, allowing for diverse styling options.

Care

  1. Cleaning the Leather: For general cleaning, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For tougher scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly according to product instructions.
  2. Cleaning the Shell Toe and Outsole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soapy water to gently scrub the rubber shell toe and outsole.
  3. Drying: Allow the sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage the leather or adhesives.
  4. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially important for white sneakers. Apply it before the first wear and reapply periodically.
  5. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct light to prevent discoloration and material degradation. Avoid crushing them to help maintain their original shape.
