FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they feature a regular fit that is generally true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I use these for running or gym training?

These are lifestyle trainers designed for walking and casual wear, not for high-intensity athletic performance.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners.

Does the shoe provide arch support?

The shoes feature a standard flat cupsole design. If you require specific arch support, you may choose to swap the factory insole for an aftermarket orthotic.

Are these shoes waterproof?

While the leather provides some protection against light moisture, they are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or tight upon initial wear

This is normal for new leather shoes. Wear them with thicker socks for short periods at home to gently stretch the material until it conforms to your foot.

Outsole surface collecting dirt in the tread

Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from the rubber cupsole tread pattern to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas BW Army trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather upper to mold to your foot shape.
  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface dust. For minor stains on the leather, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and air dry away from direct heat sources.
  • Maintenance: Apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking or drying out.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to help maintain the silhouette when not in use.
