Full details
The adidas Gazelle Indoor is an iconic lifestyle trainer designed for adults who value retro athletic aesthetics and timeless street style. Building on its heritage as a 1966 indoor football shoe, this model offers a distinct, high-quality suede construction and a signature transparent gum sole that provides a unique visual contrast. While these trainers excel in casual everyday wear, users should be aware that the suede material requires careful maintenance to preserve its texture and color integrity in wet or muddy conditions.

FAQs
Can I wash my Gazelle Indoor trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can severely damage the suede material and cause the colors to bleed. Always clean by hand.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, while they have roots in indoor sports, they lack the impact protection and support required for modern running activities.
Does the suede material need waterproofing?
Yes, applying a suede-specific water repellent spray is highly recommended to protect the shoes from the elements.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The Gazelle Indoor typically fits true to size. If you have wider feet, you may find the slim profile of the shoe requires a slightly longer break-in period.
What does the gum sole offer?
The gum sole provides a retro look and reliable traction on smooth indoor and outdoor surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Water spots or light stains on suede
Allow the shoe to air dry completely, then use a suede eraser or brush to lift the nap and remove the surface mark.
Creasing in the toe box area
This is a natural occurrence in suede footwear; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize excessive creasing.
Sole losing clarity
Gently wipe the gum sole with a mixture of mild soap and water using a soft cloth to restore the transparent look.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gazelle Indoor trainers remain in optimal condition, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a suede-safe cleaning solution and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding excessive water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the Collegiate Green suede.
- Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear to create a barrier against spills.
- Compatibility: These are standard UK size 12 trainers; if you are between sizes, consider the specific fit of the Gazelle silhouette, which is generally true-to-size but has a slimmer profile compared to modern running shoes.
