FAQs
What material is the main upper made of?
The main upper of these Superstar ST trainers is constructed from suede.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good grip and comfort for walking, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the gold accents?
The gold accents are typically part of the branding and can be wiped gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the main difference between Superstar II and Superstar ST models?
The Superstar ST often features updated proportions and materials like suede, with a bolder, sometimes skate-inspired aesthetic, compared to the classic leather Superstar II.
How do I ensure the right fit?
Refer to the size guide for UK sizing. These trainers have a regular fit, but if you have wider feet, consider trying them on or checking reviews for fit feedback.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, leather, and overall construction of the trainers.
What is the 'shell toe' feature?
The 'shell toe' is a signature rubber cap over the toe box, originally designed for basketball players to protect their toes. It remains a key iconic design element of the Superstar series.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dirty or stained
Allow the area to dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently lift the dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or consult a professional suede cleaner. Avoid water.
Laces are frayed or worn
Replace laces with a similar style and length. Authentic adidas laces can be purchased online or at sports retailers.
Outsole is losing grip
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean, as dirt and debris can reduce traction. If the tread is significantly worn down, replacement may be necessary.
Tongue or collar feels stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to naturally mold to your feet. The padding should become more comfortable with use.
