FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The Superstar II trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good comfort and grip for everyday activities, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas Originals. Generally, UK size 9.5 is a standard fit, but slight variations can occur. It's recommended to measure your foot length for the most accurate sizing.
Can the denim upper be treated to be water-resistant?
You can apply a water-repellent spray designed for footwear and denim. Test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't alter the color or texture.
What is the main difference between Superstar II and other Superstar models?
The Superstar II often features material updates or slight design variations, such as the distressed denim upper in this specific model, while retaining the core iconic elements like the shell toe and 3-Stripes.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or humid conditions.
What does 'Trefoil branding' refer to?
The Trefoil is the classic adidas logo, symbolizing the three stripes and the continents on which the brand was present at the time of its creation. It signifies authenticity and heritage.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel uneven or uncomfortable
Re-lace the shoes, ensuring an even tension across all eyelets. Adjust the tightness to your preference.
Denim material shows excessive wear or fading
Reduce the frequency of cleaning and avoid harsh detergents. Consider using a denim protector spray specifically designed for footwear.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the herringbone traction pattern is clear of debris. For increased grip on very smooth surfaces, consider using sole grips or pads.
Discoloration on the white rubber parts
Use a magic eraser or a specialized shoe cleaner for white rubber. Clean gently and wipe away residue with a damp cloth.
