Product Information
Full details
This guide is for fashion-conscious adults seeking a blend of iconic style and premium comfort. The key benefit is the distinctive, luxurious interpretation of a classic silhouette with its unique croc-embossed leather. A potential caveat is the specialized care required for genuine leather materials to maintain their appearance. The adidas Originals Superstar II trainers in Core Black/Better Scarlet offer a Predator-inspired design, featuring an all-leather, embossed upper for a sophisticated look and feel. They combine a regular fit, reliable lace closure, and the signature 3-Stripe detail with a durable rubber outsole for excellent traction and shock absorption, making them ideal for everyday wear and adding a touch of exclusive style.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and style. While they offer good traction and comfort for everyday activities, they are not specialized performance athletic shoes.
How do I clean the croc-embossed pattern?
Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to gently remove surface dust. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner can be used carefully on the embossed areas.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the genuine leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage to the leather material.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is made from high-quality genuine leather with a distinctive crocodile-like embossed texture.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or brand. The listed UK size is accurate for standard foot measurements. These are unisex trainers.
What does the red lining signify?
The red lining is a design feature that contrasts with the black exterior, adding a subtle visual accent to the shoe's interior.
What is the difference between Superstar and Superstar II?
While both are iconic models, the Superstar II often features updated materials or design nuances. This particular model is inspired by football heritage and features specific embossing.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or cracking
Ensure the shoes are not over-tightened and apply leather conditioner regularly. Avoid exposing the leather to extreme dryness or heat.
Traction seems reduced
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the surface you are walking on is not excessively slippery.
Red lining color transfer
In rare cases, the red lining dye might transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or materials, especially when the shoes are new or damp. Allow shoes to dry completely before wearing.
Difficulty lacing evenly
Ensure laces are threaded through eyelets correctly. Adjust tension gradually from the bottom up for a balanced and comfortable fit.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Avoid excessive water.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
