Troubleshooting

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a non-abrasive sponge with warm water to gently buff the marks away.
Creasing on the leather upper
This is normal for leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain the shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Superstar trainers last, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for stubborn dirt.
- Shell-Toe Care: The rubber toe cap can be cleaned using a magic eraser or a damp sponge to remove scuff marks.
- Laces: Remove and hand-wash laces if they become discoloured.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the red pigment from fading over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit standard UK sizing. If the child plans to wear thick winter socks, consider if the current fit allows for comfortable movement.
