FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports and may lack the specialized support required.
How do I know if I should go up or down a size?
The laceless design offers less adjustability than laced shoes. If you are between sizes, consider your preference: if you like a snugger fit, consider sizing down; if you prefer more room, consider sizing up. The elasticated panels will offer some flexibility.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and the structure of the shoe. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the main advantage of the slip-on design?
The primary advantage is the convenience and speed of putting them on and taking them off, eliminating the need to tie laces while maintaining the classic Superstar style.
How durable are the elasticated panels?
The elasticated panels are designed for regular use. With proper care, they should maintain their elasticity for a significant period. Avoid excessive stretching or exposure to harsh conditions.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
You can wear them with or without socks. If wearing socks, standard athletic or casual socks work well. Ensure they are not too thick, which could make the fit too tight.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Due to the laceless design, adjustability is limited. For a tighter fit, ensure your socks provide some cushioning. For a looser fit, ensure the elasticated panels are not overly stretched. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or model with traditional laces.
Elasticated panels feel stiff or uncomfortable.
Wear the trainers with socks for the first few times to help break them in. The elastic should gradually conform to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, ensure there are no internal seams rubbing.
Difficulty slipping trainers on.
Ensure your heel is positioned correctly at the back of the shoe. Using a shoehorn can assist in sliding the trainer on smoothly, especially if the elastic panels are new and firm.
Rubber shell toe has scuffs.
Gently clean the rubber toe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, a magic eraser or a specialized sneaker cleaner can be used carefully, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your adidas Originals Superstar Slip On Trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently wipe away dirt and scuffs. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber parts. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be effective.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
