FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
These are primarily lifestyle and light-exercise trainers. They are best suited for short runs, walking, or gym workouts rather than marathons.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to use your current size in other Adidas performance footwear for the most consistent fit.
Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?
Yes, the internal space is generally accommodating for standard aftermarket insoles if you require specific arch support.
What is the best way to clean the white fabric?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes completely to prevent the glue from loosening over time.
Are these trainers water-resistant?
No, the materials are breathable and not designed to repel water or protect against rain.
Is the sole non-marking?
The TPU outsole is designed to provide traction on standard gym floors and is generally safe for indoor court use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel loose during movement
Re-tie the laces using a 'runner's loop' or ensure the tongue is pulled up fully before tightening to secure the midfoot.
Outsole losing grip
Check the tread for debris or buildup of lint; clean the bottom with a damp cloth to restore traction.
Visible surface stains
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a light mix of mild detergent and water, applying gently with a soft cloth to avoid damaging the upper material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Galaxy 8 trainers last, properly lace them so the fit is snug but not restrictive, allowing for natural blood flow. For maintenance, it is recommended to spot-clean the white exterior with a mild soap and a soft-bristled brush to prevent dirt buildup. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the cushioning properties of the Cloudfoam. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the structural integrity of the materials.
