FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Gazelle Indoor trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light training. They do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for serious running.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart and measure your foot length. Comparing with your current comfortable trainers can also help. The UK size listed is 6.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the trainers can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, especially for the suede material, which can get stained or damaged.

What is the main difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor?

The Gazelle Indoor typically features a slightly more streamlined profile and sometimes different sole construction optimized for indoor activities or a more classic look, compared to the standard Gazelle.

How often should I clean my suede trainers?

Clean them as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or stains. Regular brushing can help maintain the suede's appearance between deeper cleanings.

What other colours are available in the Gazelle Indoor series?

The Gazelle Indoor series is available in various colours, including brown, pink, and green, each with its own unique appeal and sibling models.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try adding a powder to the insole or ensure the insole is properly seated.

Stains on suede material

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and a soft brush. For minor marks, a dry suede eraser might suffice. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces becoming worn

Replace laces with new ones of similar length and material to maintain the shoe's aesthetic. Standard athletic shoelaces are usually compatible.

Fit feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing pattern. If consistently too tight or loose, consider trying a half-size up or down, or using thicker/thinner socks. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.
