FAQs

How should I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Then, with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner, gently wipe the surface. Finish by conditioning the leather to keep it supple and prevent drying. Always allow to air dry naturally.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, the Adidas Japan trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. While they offer comfort, they are not engineered for the specific demands of running or high-performance athletic activities.

What does 'tumbled leather' mean?

Tumbled leather is a type of leather that has been processed in a rotating drum (tumble) to soften it and enhance its natural grain, often resulting in a slightly textured or pebbled appearance.

How can I protect my trainers from water damage?

Before first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather footwear. This creates a barrier against moisture and spills.

Do I need to break them in?

Yes, like most leather footwear, a short break-in period is recommended. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to the unique shape of your feet for optimal comfort.

Are these trainers true to size?

Most users find Adidas Japan trainers to be true to size, but individual fit can vary. For the most accurate guidance, we recommend consulting the official Adidas size chart or trying them on if possible.

What is the primary material of the lining?

The lining of these trainers is made from a soft textile material, which contributes to the overall comfort and helps with breathability inside the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or scuffed

Clean gently with a specialized leather cleaner, then apply a quality leather conditioner to restore luster and suppleness. For minor scuffs, a leather balm or polish matching the shoe's color can help.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather and sole to naturally conform to your foot. Proper lacing can also alleviate pressure points. Ensure you have the correct size.

Unpleasant odor develops inside

Ensure trainers dry completely after each wear. Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprays designed for footwear. Avoid wearing the same pair every day.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear. If the tread is significantly worn, traction will be reduced. For minor issues, clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris that might be impacting grip.

Laces frequently come undone

Ensure you are using a secure knotting technique, such as a double knot or a 'reef knot' method. Consider replacing worn laces if they are too slick or stretched.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for adult wear and complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. Their classic brown color and timeless design make them highly adaptable, suitable for both female and gender-neutral styling.

Care

Given the premium leather upper, proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your Adidas Japan trainers:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt and dust, use a soft brush or a dry cloth to gently wipe the surface. For deeper cleaning, dampen a soft cloth with a mild leather cleaner and gently wipe the entire surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple, prevent drying, and maintain its natural luster. Follow the product instructions for application.
  4. Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  5. Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  6. Outsole Care: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and maintain traction.
