FAQs
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper of the Adidas Originals Superstar II is made from sleek leather, providing both durability and a premium look.
Are these trainers suitable for playing basketball?
While the design has heritage from basketball courts, these trainers are primarily evolved for streetwear and casual urban use, prioritizing style and everyday comfort over athletic performance.
How do I ensure the trainers fit correctly?
These trainers feature a 'regular fit' and a lace closure. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Refer to standard UK sizing for adult footwear.
How should I clean the rubber shell toe?
The rubber rounded shell toe can be easily cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth and a mild soap. For persistent scuffs, a soft brush can be used carefully.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash leather trainers. This can damage the leather and structural integrity. Always hand-clean them as per the care instructions.
Do these trainers offer good traction?
Yes, they are equipped with a grippy rubber outsole designed to provide reliable traction on various urban surfaces.
What type of environment are these trainers best suited for?
The Adidas Originals Superstar II trainers are best suited for city streets and casual urban environments, offering style and comfort for daily activities.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the lace closure. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened across the foot, and experiment with different lacing techniques to customize the fit.
White leather or shell toe appears dirty or scuffed.
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap or a specialized leather cleaner. For scuffs on the rubber shell toe, a soft brush or eraser can sometimes help.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Check if the insoles are properly seated. Sometimes, a little talcum powder under the insole can reduce friction causing the squeak. If the squeak is from the sole, ensure it's dry and clean.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knotting method. A 'double knot' or 'surgeon's knot' can provide extra security. Periodically check laces for wear and replace if frayed.

Care: To maintain the sleek leather upper and overall appearance:
- Cleaning: For the leather, wipe down regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks on the white areas or the shell toe, use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the material.
- Shell Toe: The rubber shell toe can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove scuffs and dirt.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can cause cracking or discoloration of the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup and maintain their shape.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the white parts.
