FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

The Adidas Japan Trainers are primarily designed as *lifestyle and casual footwear*. While they feature a *soft EVA cushioned midsole* for comfort, they are not engineered for the high-performance demands of running or intense sports. For such activities, we recommend specialized athletic running shoes.

How do I determine my correct size for these trainers?

These trainers are available in standard UK adult sizing. We recommend referring to the official Adidas size guide, which often includes measurements, to ensure you select the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up or down based on your preference for a snug or relaxed fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The *leather upper* offers some natural resistance to light moisture. However, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided, as it can damage the leather and reduce the lifespan of the trainers. If they do get wet, follow the drying instructions in the care section carefully.

What material is used for the inner lining of the trainers?

The inner lining of the Adidas Japan Trainers is made from *textile*, designed to provide comfort and breathability for your feet during everyday wear.

How often should I condition the leather upper?

The frequency of conditioning depends on how often you wear the trainers and the conditions they are exposed to. As a general guideline, condition the *leather upper* every 1-3 months, or whenever the leather appears dry or dull, to keep it supple, protected, and prevent cracking.

What is the main benefit of the EVA cushioned midsole?

The *soft EVA cushioned midsole* is a key feature that provides lightweight cushioning and excellent shock absorption. It adds extra padding and a responsive *bounce* to your step, significantly enhancing comfort for everyday wear and prolonged periods of standing or walking.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the *lace closure*. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned across the top of your foot. If the size is incorrect, consult the Adidas size guide for a better fit or consider an exchange.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes happen with new rubber outsoles or insoles due to friction. Try applying a small amount of baby powder under the insole to reduce friction. For outsoles, the sound may diminish with wear.

Leather appears dull or dry

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then apply a quality leather conditioner. This will help restore its luster and keep it supple and protected.

Foul odor develops inside the trainers

Ensure trainers are fully dry after each use. Remove insoles occasionally to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside and let it sit overnight (remove before wearing).

Sole losing grip or appearing worn

Check the *rubber outsole* for excessive wear or smooth spots on the treads. If the treads are significantly worn, the trainers may need to be replaced for safety, especially on wet or slippery surfaces.

Care

To maintain the premium look and longevity of your *leather upper* Adidas Japan Trainers:

  • Cleaning:
  • For general dirt, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth, following the product's instructions.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the leather.
  • Drying:
  • Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can cause cracking or warping of the leather.
  • Stuff with paper towels to absorb moisture and help maintain shape.
  • Conditioning:
  • Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.
  • Storage:
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
