No, the adidas Originals Gazelle x Real Madrid trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and style, not for athletic performance or sports requiring specialized footwear.
How do I best protect the suede material?

What is the fit like for these Gazelle trainers?
These trainers feature a regular fit with traditional lace closure, designed to provide comfort for most foot shapes during casual wear.
Can I machine wash these trainers?

Are these trainers true to size?
Generally, adidas Gazelle models are considered true to size. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. Refer to adidas's official sizing guide if unsure.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a suede eraser or a small amount of suede cleaner on a clean cloth, rubbing gently.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The trainers may need a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet.
Color of the suede seems to be fading.
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause suede to fade. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from windows or other direct light sources when not in use. A suede protector spray can also help.
Water stains on the suede.
If they get wet, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. A professional cleaner might be needed for severe stains.
