FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for playing sports?

While durable, these Adidas Gazelle Indoor Trainers are primarily designed for casual, everyday wear and comfort, not high-performance sports. For intense athletic activities, specialized sports footwear is recommended.

How do I maintain the vibrant pink striped design?

To keep the pink stripes vibrant, gently clean them with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners that could damage the color or material.

What does 'original 1979 silhouette' mean?

This refers to the classic design cues and shape of the Adidas Gazelle trainers as they were originally introduced in 1979. It signifies a timeless, retro aesthetic.

Is the translucent sole durable?

Yes, the gum rubber outsole, including its translucent effect, is designed for durability and provides reliable traction for everyday wear on various surfaces.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended for these leather trainers as it can damage the material, shape, and adhesives. Please follow the manual cleaning instructions provided in the care section.

Are these waterproof?

The leather upper provides some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions to protect the material.

How do I know if UK Kids Size 5 is the right fit?

It is recommended to measure the child's foot and consult an Adidas sizing chart for children's footwear to ensure the best possible fit. A proper fit is crucial for comfort and foot health.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dirty

Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. Afterwards, a leather conditioner can restore its luster.

Sole has lost its grip or looks dirty

Use a brush or damp cloth with mild soap to thoroughly clean the gum rubber outsole. Ensure all dirt and debris are removed from the tread pattern.

Trainers feel uncomfortable or rub

Ensure the trainers are correctly laced and tied, providing adequate support without being too tight. Verify that the size is appropriate for the wearer; UK Kids Size 5 is specific.

Scuff marks on the leather

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, dry cloth. Deeper scuffs may require a specialized leather repair cream or professional assistance.

Care and Maintenance:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper: Gently wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for footwear, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh brushes.
  2. Cleaning the Stripes and Sole: Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the pink stripes and the gum rubber outsole. Pay attention to crevices on the sole to maintain traction.
  3. Drying: After cleaning, allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can cause the leather to crack or discolour.
  4. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape over time.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against stains and moisture, especially before initial wear and periodically thereafter.
