FAQs
What makes the Gazelle trainers iconic?
The Gazelle trainers are iconic due to their consistent design lineage dating back to the 1960s, characterized by a simple, low-profile silhouette, suede upper, and distinctive T-toe overlay. This reissue specifically references the 1991 version.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Please refer to the UK sizing guide provided. Be aware that the product box or label might display US or European sizes, which can differ. It is recommended to confirm your child's foot measurement against the UK size chart.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. While the leather and synthetic upper offers some resistance to light moisture, they are not suitable for heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the benefit of the OrthoLite® insole?
The OrthoLite® insole provides excellent cushioning, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, contributing to long-lasting comfort and helping to keep feet dry.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials (leather, suede, glue) and alter the shape of the trainers.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made of leather and synthetic materials, with a soft suede finish characteristic of the Gazelle series.
Are there other color options available for this model?
Yes, the Gazelle series is available in various colorways and materials. Please check for other listings that might feature different color families like Silver or Grey.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the classic shoelaces for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, referring to the product description and size guide.
Suede material appears worn or dirty.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole is losing grip.
Ensure the rubber sole is clean from dirt and debris, as this can affect traction. For significant wear, the sole may need professional assessment.
