FAQs

What material are the adidas Originals Italia 70s trainers made of?

The upper is primarily made of suede leather, with a textile sockliner and a rubber outsole.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, inspired by vintage athletic styles. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning of modern performance athletic shoes.

How do I clean and maintain the suede material?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, a damp cloth or specialized suede cleaner may be used. Always allow suede to air dry and consider using a protector spray.

What does 'low-profile' mean in the context of these shoes?

A low-profile design means the shoe has a relatively flat sole and sits closer to the ground, offering a sleek appearance and a comfortable feel for casual wear.

What is the origin of the Italia 70s design?

The design is a modern interpretation of the classic adidas Italia shoes from the 1960s and 1970s, drawing from the adidas archives.

Do these trainers have good grip?

Yes, they feature a reliable rubber outsole designed to provide good traction for everyday use on various surfaces.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, suede is not ideal for heavy rain. It's recommended to use a waterproofing spray and avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions to protect the suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dull or dirty.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specialized suede cleaning products and follow their instructions carefully.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If slightly snug, try wearing them with thin socks around the house for a short period to allow them to break in. Avoid exposing wet suede to direct heat, as this can damage the material.

Laces are worn or dirty.

Laces can be replaced with standard shoelaces. Clean existing laces by hand with mild soap and water or machine wash on a gentle cycle.
