FAQs
What materials are the adidas Yeezy 500 'Super Moon Yellow' made of?
The upper part of the shoe is constructed from a combination of premium suede and breathable mesh.
How do I clean my Yeezy 500 'Super Moon Yellow' sneakers?
For suede, use a specialized suede brush and cleaner. For mesh, a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth works well. Always air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
Are these shoes suitable for running or athletic activities?
No, the adidas Yeezy 500 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, focusing on unique style and casual comfort. It is not intended for high-performance athletic activities.
What does 'Feet You Wear' technology refer to in these shoes?
The midsole design of the Yeezy 500 is inspired by adidas's 'Feet You Wear' technology from the 90s. While not featuring the exact same performance tech, it adopts the distinctive bulbous and sculpted aesthetic, contributing to the shoe's unique look and stable, comfortable base for casual wear.
When was the 'Super Moon Yellow' colorway originally released?
The 'Super Moon Yellow' colorway was originally released in December 2017 as a very limited release. It has since been made more widely available.
Do Yeezy 500s fit true to size?
Info needed: [General consensus often suggests going true to size or half a size up if you prefer a slightly roomier fit, especially if you have wider feet. However, fit can vary by individual. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consult specific size charts if available.]
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or discolored.
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For discoloration or minor stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always brush gently in one direction.
Mesh sections appear dirty or dull.
Prepare a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water. Gently clean the mesh with a soft cloth or brush, wiping in small circular motions. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
Unpleasant odor from the shoes.
Remove the insoles and air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area. You can also use odor-absorbing inserts, baking soda (sprinkle inside and leave overnight, then vacuum), or specialized shoe deodorizers.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the sole. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. If the squeak persists, check the outsole for any loose parts.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the unique look and longevity of your suede and mesh sneakers.
- Spot Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush) to gently brush away debris.
- Suede Cleaning: For more stubborn stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Apply the cleaner sparingly and brush gently in one direction.
- Mesh Cleaning: For the mesh sections, mix a small amount of mild soap with water. Dip a soft cloth or brush into the solution, wring out excess liquid, and gently wipe the mesh. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Always allow your sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat, as this can damage the materials.
- Protection: Consider applying a suede and fabric protector spray before wearing to help repel water and stains.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
