FAQs
Are these suitable for running or sports?
No, these are casual trainers designed for everyday wear and comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities or running.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas Originals and measure your foot. These are listed in UK adult women's sizing. Consider the width of your foot when selecting a size, as they may fit more snugly than other brands.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand clean using the care instructions provided.
What is the material of the embroidered stars?
The stars are embroidered directly onto the leather upper, typically using durable thread to match the shoe's design.
How durable is the rubber shell toe?
The rubber shell toe is a signature feature designed for durability and protection. It is made from robust rubber that should withstand regular wear and tear.
What is the warranty on these trainers?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the point of sale. Please check your purchase receipt or contact the retailer for specific warranty details.
Can the sole be replaced if it wears out?
These trainers feature a cemented sole construction, which means the sole is glued to the upper. This type of construction is generally not designed for easy resoling by cobblers.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural for leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize extreme creasing. Stuff shoes with paper when not in use to help maintain shape.
Slight discomfort during initial wear
The leather upper may need a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure they are laced correctly.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole offers good grip, performance on extremely wet or slippery surfaces may be limited. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Discoloration from scuffs
Minor scuffs on the leather can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For persistent marks, use a color-matched leather restorer or cleaner.

Compatibility:
- Footwear: Designed for adult women. Available in UK sizes.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner and follow product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber sole and shell toe. Stubborn marks on the rubber can often be removed with a magic eraser.
- Lining: If the interior becomes soiled, use a damp cloth and mild soap, ensuring not to saturate the material. Allow to air dry completely.
