FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Gazelle Indoor is classified as a lifestyle/casual trainer and does not provide the cushioning or stability required for running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The fit should be snug but not tight. You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While they are durable, suede variants are prone to water damage. It is best to avoid heavy rain and consider applying a water-repellent spray.
What does 'Indoor' mean in the name?
It refers to the historical design origin of the shoe, which features a gum-sole profile originally created for indoor training courts.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust or light scuffs
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently buff the affected area in a circular motion.
Footbed feels slippery after long wear
Remove the insole, clean it separately with mild soapy water, let it air dry completely, and replace it.
Laces becoming frayed or dirty
Replace standard laces with standard flat cotton laces to refresh the look and maintain proper tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gazelle Indoor trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines. For sizing, these shoes typically run true to size, but consider the width of your foot, as the silhouette is relatively slim. To clean, use a soft brush to remove surface dust. If your pair is made of suede, use a specialized suede eraser or brush to restore the nap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the upper and weaken the adhesive between the midsole and the shoe body. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
