FAQs
Are the adidas Gazelle trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to your standard UK shoe size, but because of the slim design, some users with wider feet prefer going up half a size.
Can I use these for running?
While durable, the Gazelle is a lifestyle trainer and lacks the technical cushioning and support found in dedicated running shoes.
How do I best clean the white details?
A mixture of mild soap and water applied with a soft sponge works effectively on the white stripes and soles.
Are these shoes suitable for all genders?
Yes, the Gazelle is a classic unisex silhouette designed to provide a stylish fit for everyone.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from high-quality leather, which provides a balance of comfort and structural durability.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Insert wooden or plastic shoe trees when not in use to help the leather retain its shape.
Difficulty keeping the shoes clean
Apply a leather-safe cleaning solution and a specialized brush for the upper; use a toothbrush for the white midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Gazelle trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines. Given the leather construction, it is recommended to use a protective water-repellent spray prior to your first wear to shield against unexpected rain or spills. For cleaning, wipe down the exterior with a damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt and debris. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather and structural integrity. For sizing, ensure you consult your standard UK size, though those planning to wear thick winter socks may consider a slightly looser fit for maximum comfort.
