FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports or athletic activities?

The ADIDAS ORIGINALS Gazelle Bold Trainers are primarily designed for casual, everyday wear and fashion purposes. Their platform sole and suede upper are best suited for street-wear and light activities, not high-performance sports or running.

How do I best clean the suede upper of these trainers?

For optimal care, use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for minor marks. We highly recommend applying a suede protector spray before first wear and using specialized suede cleaning products for deeper cleaning, always following product instructions carefully.

What material is the platform sole made of?

The distinctive platform sole is a three-layer stacked gum sole, made of durable rubber designed to provide both style and reliable traction for everyday use.

Does the sizing for the Gazelle Bold Trainers run true to fit?

Adidas Gazelle trainers generally tend to run true to size. For the best fit, we recommend consulting the official Adidas size guide or, if possible, trying them on to ensure comfort and accuracy for your foot.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather conditions?

While a suede protector spray can offer some resistance, the suede material is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or very wet conditions to prevent potential water damage and staining to the suede.

What is the main difference between the 'Bold' version and a standard Gazelle trainer?

The key distinguishing feature of the 'Bold' version is its three-layer stacked platform sole. This design provides an elevated height and a more contemporary, fashion-forward aesthetic compared to the traditional, flatter sole of a standard Gazelle silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted after wear.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in a consistent direction. This will help lift and restore the texture, giving the material its original vibrant look.

Trainers feel uncomfortably tight or loose.

Adjust the full lace fastening. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened across the top of your foot and around the ankle area. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find the most comfortable and secure fit for your foot shape.

Minor stains or scuffs appear on the suede.

For fresh, minor marks, gently use a suede eraser on the affected area. For more persistent stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions, always testing on an inconspicuous spot first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elevated & Stylish Design: The distinctive platform sole offers a modern, fashion-forward twist on a classic silhouette.
  • Comfortable for Everyday Wear: Designed with textile lining and soft collar padding for sustained comfort.
  • Versatile Styling: The low-profile silhouette and classic elements make them suitable for a wide range of casual to smart-casual outfits.
  • Premium Material Feel: Buttery-soft suede upper provides a luxurious touch and classic aesthetic.
  • Secure & Personalized Fit: Full lace fastening allows for precise adjustment and a snug feel.

Cons

  • Suede Maintenance Required: The premium suede material is susceptible to stains and requires specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • Platform Sole Preference: The elevated sole might not appeal to all users or be suitable for all types of activities.
  • Not Performance Footwear: Primarily designed for casual lifestyle wear rather than athletic performance or sports.
  • Limited Wet Weather Protection: Suede is not fully waterproof and is best avoided in heavy rain to prevent water damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup and care will ensure your ADIDAS ORIGINALS Gazelle Bold Trainers remain stylish and comfortable for a long time.

Setup

To prepare your trainers for first wear, simply thread the laces through all eyelets and tie them to your preferred tightness. Ensure the tongue is centered and the soft padding around the collar sits comfortably against your ankle, providing a snug, secure fit.

Compatibility

These trainers boast excellent aesthetic compatibility, suitable for a wide array of casual and smart-casual ensembles. Their Trace Brown suede finish pairs particularly well with:

  • Earthy Tones: Complementary with greens, olives, beiges, and creams.
  • Denim: A classic pairing that highlights both casual and slightly dressed-up denim looks.
  • Neutrals: Blacks, whites, and greys allow the trainers to stand out as a stylish focal point.
  • Fashion-Forward Outfits: Their elevated design makes them ideal for contemporary streetwear or to add an unexpected edge to more feminine dresses and skirts.

Care for Suede

The suede upper requires specific attention to maintain its quality and appearance:

  1. Initial Protection: Before wearing, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For light dust and dirt, use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction. This helps to restore the texture.
  3. Spot Treatment: For minor marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser to gently rub away the blemish. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaning solution. Follow the product instructions carefully, applying sparingly and working into the affected area with a clean cloth or brush. Avoid saturating the material.
  5. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them loosely with paper towels or shoe trees to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can cause fading or damage.
  6. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or box, to protect them from dust and prevent the suede from being crushed.
