FAQs

Are these Adidas Japan Trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, these trainers are an authentic reissue of a classic 1964 design intended for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. They are not built with the specific support or features required for running or high-performance sports.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers use standard UK women's sizing. It is generally recommended to select your usual sneaker size. If you are unsure, you can refer to Adidas' official size chart, often found on their website.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions to protect the leather and maintain the shoe's condition.

What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?

Due to their low-profile design and textile lining, they are comfortable with a variety of socks, including athletic socks, no-show socks, or thin casual socks, depending on your preference and weather conditions.

Is the EVA midsole removable?

Info needed: [Please check the product's specific design or manufacturer's details. Often, EVA midsoles are integrated for cushioning and are not easily removable without potentially damaging the shoe.]

How do I maintain the color of the brown leather?

Regular cleaning and conditioning with products specifically designed for brown leather will help maintain its richness and prevent fading. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can also cause discoloration over time.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable

Check your lacing. Ensure laces are not pulled too tightly. Leather shoes can take a few wears to 'break in' and conform to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size.

Leather appears dull or dry

Clean the leather thoroughly with a soft, damp cloth to remove any surface dirt, then apply a suitable leather conditioner. This will restore moisture and luster to the material.

Unpleasant odor developing inside the shoes

Remove the trainers' insoles (if removable) and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are completely dry after wear.

Sole is losing grip or appears dirty

Clean the rubber outsole with a stiff brush or a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and debris. Regular cleaning helps maintain the traction of the rubber.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the premium look and longevity of your leather trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper: Gently wipe away dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied according to the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  2. Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage and crack the leather.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its natural sheen and extends its life.
  4. Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the rubber outsole, removing any accumulated dirt.
  5. Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid Excessive Moisture: While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or excessively wet conditions to prevent water damage and potential staining.
