FAQs

What is the primary material used in the Yeezy 500 'Utility Black'?

The upper is primarily constructed from a combination of mesh and suede.

What does 'Utility Black' mean in the context of this shoe?

'Utility Black' refers to a specific semi-faded, all-black color finish that distinguishes it from a standard pitch-black hue.

Are these suitable for running?

While they offer comfort and cushioning, the Yeezy 500 'Utility Black' is primarily designed for casual wear, not high-performance running.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a soft, dry brush for dust. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and a lightly damp cloth are recommended. Avoid soaking the material.

What is the cushioning technology used?

The shoe features adiPRENE+ cushioning for enhanced comfort and support.

Is this shoe suitable for women?

This specific variant is listed for adult males, but sizing can sometimes overlap. Refer to sizing charts if considering for other gender categories.

What is the fit like?

The Yeezy 500 generally has a snug fit. Consider sizing up if you prefer more room or plan to wear thick socks.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears faded or discolored.

This is a characteristic of the 'Utility Black' colorway. For maintenance, use a suede brush to restore texture and color depth. Avoid excessive moisture.

Laces feel difficult to tighten or loosen.

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If they feel stiff, a light conditioning treatment for the laces might help, or consider replacing them with a different material.

Sole feels stiff initially.

The adiPRENE+ cushioning will become more flexible with wear. Break them in by wearing them for short periods initially.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: As footwear, the Yeezy 500 requires no setup. Simply lace them up and wear.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult males and are suitable for casual wear. They are compatible with standard sock wear.

Care:

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box, away from direct sunlight to maintain color integrity.
