FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is generally not recommended to put athletic shoes in a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the foam and structure.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, they are excellent for treadmill runs and general fitness, though they are specifically tuned for forward motion rather than lateral movement.
Does the Cloudfoam technology wear out quickly?
Cloudfoam is designed for longevity, but like any foam, it will compress over time depending on your weight, running surface, and frequency of use.
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, the Galaxy 8 is designed with a standard athletic fit that is true to most standard UK sizing.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the provided insoles are generally removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface stains
Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild detergent and water to gently spot clean the area.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tensioned properly throughout the eyelets, or consider using a heel-lock lacing technique.
Loss of cushioning bounce
Like all foam-based shoes, material degradation occurs over time; if you exceed 300-500 miles, it may be time for a replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Galaxy 8 trainers maintain their integrity, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While they offer instant comfort, wear them for shorter periods during the first few days to allow the upper materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Given the white colour, spot clean the exterior regularly using a mild soap and a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid submerging in water.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Never place shoes directly on radiators or use a tumble dryer, as heat can warp the cushioning and adhesive materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the materials.
