FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, the adidas Originals Italia 70s trainers are designed for casual wear and style, not for high-performance running or athletic sports. Their construction prioritizes comfort and aesthetics over athletic support and durability.
How do I clean the blue leather and suede materials?
For leather, wipe with a damp cloth and use a leather cleaner/conditioner. For suede, use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing. Refer to the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section for detailed instructions.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, due to their leather and suede construction, these trainers are not waterproof. We recommend applying a protective spray to enhance water resistance and avoiding wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
Do adidas Italia 70s fit true to size?
Generally, adidas Originals trainers, including the Italia 70s, tend to fit true to size. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. If you are between sizes, it's often recommended to try the larger size for comfort.
Can I wear these trainers year-round?
Yes, they can be worn year-round, but it's important to consider weather conditions. They are ideal for dry spring, summer, and autumn days. In winter or wet weather, take extra precautions to protect the materials from moisture and salt.
What's the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture, preventing creases and odors.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction. For stubborn dirt, use a suede eraser before brushing.
Leather looks dull or dry
Clean the leather thoroughly, then apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish with a soft cloth. Buff gently to restore shine and suppleness.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable
Leather and suede can take time to break in. Wear them for short periods initially, and consider using thicker socks. The materials will gradually mold to your feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your adidas Originals Italia 70s trainers require no special setup. Simply unbox, lace them up to your desired tightness, and you're ready to go. We recommend wearing them for short periods initially to break them in and allow the leather to conform to your foot shape for optimal comfort.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for casual and lifestyle wear. They are highly compatible with a range of outfits, including:
- Casual Apparel: Jeans, shorts, t-shirts, hoodies.
- Retro Sportswear: Tracksuits, vintage-inspired jerseys.
- Smart Casual: Chinos, polo shirts, light jackets.
They are ideal for daily use, social occasions, and urban exploration. Due to their leather and suede construction, they are not recommended for strenuous athletic activities or prolonged exposure to wet or muddy conditions.
Care
Proper care will ensure your Italia 70s trainers maintain their premium look and feel for years. Given the mix of leather and suede, specific attention is required:
- Initial Protection: Apply a high-quality leather and suede protector spray before the first wear to guard against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe off any surface dirt with a soft, dry brush or cloth.
- Leather Cleaning: For the leather sections, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Wipe gently and allow to air dry. Follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
- Suede Cleaning: For suede areas, use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner, applying sparingly.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Never put your leather and suede trainers in a washing machine, as this will cause irreparable damage.
