FAQs
What material are the adidas Originals Italia 70s made of?
The upper is made of premium suede leather, and they feature a textile sockliner and a rubber outsole.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These shoes are designed primarily for casual wear and general everyday use. They offer a retro aesthetic and comfort but do not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for intense athletic activities.
How should I clean the suede material?
Use a dedicated suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.
What is the fit like on these shoes?
They offer a regular fit with laces. The low-profile design and suede upper may mold to your foot over time, but it's recommended to choose your usual size.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and cause staining. Using a suede protector spray can offer some protection, but complete waterproofing is not guaranteed.
What does the 'Italia 70s' series signify?
The 'Italia 70s' designation refers to a line of shoes inspired by classic adidas designs from the 1960s and 1970s, emphasizing heritage and retro style.
How do I maintain the color of the suede?
Regular brushing with a suede brush helps maintain the texture and color. Avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and using a suede protector spray can also help preserve the color.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a clean suede brush to lift the nap and remove loose dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Shoes feel too tight
Wear the shoes with thin socks initially to allow the suede to stretch slightly. You can also try using thicker socks for a short period around the house to help break them in.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoes to air dry completely. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush to restore the texture. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future spotting.
