FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

While the Gazelle was originally a training shoe, the modern Adidas Gazelle Indoor is primarily designed for casual wear and light, everyday activities. For running or intensive sports, we highly recommend using specialized athletic footwear that provides appropriate support and cushioning.

How do I choose the correct size?

These shoes are listed in UK adult sizes. We strongly recommend referring to adidas' official size guide and measuring your foot accurately to ensure the best fit. If you find yourself between sizes, it's often best to try both sizes to determine which offers superior comfort.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The combination of leather and synthetic materials in the upper offers some basic protection against light moisture, but the shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. Applying a water-repellent spray suitable for leather and synthetic materials can provide additional protection.

What is the key difference between the Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor models?

The Gazelle Indoor typically distinguishes itself with a slightly translucent gum rubber sole and sometimes features subtle differences in upper material textures or branding placement compared to the standard Gazelle. Both models share the iconic, beloved Gazelle silhouette.

How can I keep the metallic finish of the upper looking new?

To maintain the metallic finish, regularly wipe the upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. For enhanced protection against water and stains, consider applying a non-silicone-based leather protector spray specifically designed for metallic finishes. Store them away from direct sunlight to prevent premature fading.

Is the insole of the Gazelle Indoor removable?

Yes, the insoles in the Adidas Gazelle Indoor are generally designed to be removable. This feature can be beneficial for cleaning purposes or if you wish to insert custom orthotics for personalized comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Laces frequently come untied

Ensure you are using a double knot or try a different lacing technique, such as a surgeon's knot, for improved security. Over time, laces can soften and require a tighter initial knot.

Slight squeaking sound when walking

This can occasionally occur if there's friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath it to reduce friction.

Minor scuffs or marks on the metallic upper

For light scuffs, gently clean the area with a soft, damp cloth. For more noticeable marks, a specialized leather cleaner or a discreet application of a leather cream in a matching color might help. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Unpleasant odor developing inside the shoes

Remove the insoles and allow them to air out. Place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out thoroughly. Using moisture-absorbing packets or cedar shoe trees can also help prevent odor build-up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Unboxing: Carefully remove your new Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lacing: Adjust the traditional lace closure to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. The regular fit is designed to accommodate most foot shapes comfortably.
  3. First Wear: It's advisable to wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet, though the synthetic lining often provides comfort from the first wear.

Compatibility

  • Gender: Primarily designed for 'Male' based on product attributes, but the Gazelle silhouette is widely considered unisex.
  • Age Group: 'Adult'.
  • Size: Available in various UK adult sizes, including Size 7 (UK). Always refer to the official adidas size guide and measure your foot to ensure the best possible fit.
  • Style: Highly compatible with casual, streetwear, and retro-inspired fashion aesthetics.

Care and Maintenance

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the leather and synthetic metallic upper, gently wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent stains, use a mild leather cleaner or a sneaker-specific cleaning solution, applied with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the material or finish.
  2. Outsole Cleaning: Use a brush (such as an old toothbrush) and a solution of mild soap and water to clean the rubber outsole.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as this can cause materials to dry out, crack, or lose their shape.
  4. Storage: Store your Gazelle Indoor shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or crumpled paper inside can help them maintain their original shape over time.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a protective spray specifically formulated for leather and synthetic materials. This can help repel water and prevent stains, extending the life and appearance of your shoes.
