FAQs
Are these Gazelle Bold trainers true to size?
Generally, adidas Gazelle models tend to fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort, especially with the platform sole.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the trainers are made from durable materials, the suede upper is not naturally waterproof. We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray designed for suede before wearing them in wet conditions. Avoid heavy rain to protect the material.
What is the approximate height of the platform sole?
The platform sole on the Gazelle Bold typically adds approximately 3-4 cm (around 1.2 to 1.6 inches) of height. Info needed: [Exact platform height in cm/inches]
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities or running?
No, the adidas Gazelle Bold Trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and fashion purposes. They are not engineered for athletic activities like running, training, or sports, which require specialized performance footwear.
How do I maintain the vibrant pink color of the suede?
To maintain the vibrant color, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean regularly with a suede brush and use a color-neutral suede protector spray. Address stains promptly to prevent them from setting.
Are there other color options available for the Gazelle Bold?
Yes, the Gazelle Bold series is available in a variety of colors and materials (e.g., Black, Grey, and different materials like Suede or Leather). Please check with your retailer for current availability of other variants.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Brush in one direction.
Stains on the suede upper
For light stains, try a suede eraser. For more stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles appear dirty or scuffed
Wipe the gum soles with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective.
Shoes feel too tight or loose over time
Adjust the lace-up fastening to achieve a more comfortable and secure fit. Consider trying different lacing techniques if needed.
