FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and indoor activities. They do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for running.
What is the main difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor?
The Gazelle Indoor models are often designed with materials and sole constructions optimized for indoor surfaces and comfort, sometimes featuring a more retro aesthetic compared to modern Gazelle iterations.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart provided, paying attention to UK, EU, and US size conversions. Measure your foot length for accuracy if possible.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the gum sole offers some grip, the materials, especially if suede, are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check the product packaging or contact the point of purchase for specific warranty details.
How should I clean the gum sole?
The gum sole can usually be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Stubborn marks might be removable with a pencil eraser or a specialized sole cleaner.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thin socks initially, or consider wearing them around the house for short periods to break them in. Ensure you have the correct size; check against the size chart.
Soles appear worn
This is normal wear for the rubber gum sole. If excessive wear occurs quickly, check if the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended indoor use.
Discoloration on the upper
Depending on the material, use a specific cleaner for suede, leather, or synthetic. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with a similar type. Clean laces periodically with mild soap and water.
