Full details
The adidas Sportswear Tekwen Slip-On Trainers are designed for individuals seeking a blend of modern athletic style and all-day comfort, drawing inspiration from classic tennis footwear. These laceless trainers offer easy wearability and a sleek aesthetic, highlighted by a cushioned EVA midsole and breathable mesh. While providing excellent comfort for casual and light activities, their slip-on nature means they may offer less adjustable security compared to traditional laced athletic shoes for high-intensity sports.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or high-intensity sports?
The adidas Tekwen Slip-On Trainers are primarily designed for comfort, casual wear, and light athletic activities. While they offer cushioning, for dedicated running or high-intensity sports that require specific support and a very secure, adjustable fit, we recommend trainers specifically engineered for those activities.
How do I determine the correct size?
The trainers come in a regular fit. We recommend trying them on to ensure comfort. Please note that the sizing on the shoe's box or label might show US/Euro sizes that differ from the UK size. Always confirm the UK size.
What materials are the trainers made from?
The upper is constructed from synthetic materials, while the outsole is made of rubber. The tongue features a breathable mesh material.
Can I machine wash my Tekwen trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Please follow the manual care instructions for cleaning.
What is the benefit of the three-quarter EVA midsole?
The three-quarter EVA midsole provides lightweight and responsive cushioning. This helps absorb impact and offers comfort and support for all-day wear, reducing foot fatigue.
Are these trainers good for travel?
Yes, their laceless, slip-on design makes them excellent for travel. They are easy to remove at airport security and offer comfortable support for exploring new destinations on foot.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have checked the UK size specifically. Sometimes, the box or label may show US/Euro sizes which can differ from your expected UK size. If still uncomfortable, ensure the 'regular fit' suits your foot type.
My feet feel hot or sweaty after prolonged wear.
While the trainers feature a mesh tongue for breathability, synthetic uppers can sometimes retain heat. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks to help manage perspiration. Ensure the mesh areas are not obstructed.
Trainers feel too loose or not secure enough during activity.
The Tekwen trainers are a laceless, slip-on design offering a regular fit for comfort. For activities requiring a highly secure or adjustable fit (e.g., intensive sports), traditional laced trainers designed for that specific activity may be more suitable.
Slight squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur from friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and reinserting it. If persistent, a light sprinkle of baby powder under the insole can help reduce friction.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Effortless Style: Sleek, modern design with a laceless silhouette for a clean look.
- Superior Comfort: EVA midsole and regular fit contribute to all-day comfort and support.
- Breathability: Mesh tongue helps keep feet cool and dry.
- Convenient Wear: Easy to slip on and off, ideal for quick transitions.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for casual wear, light activities, and complementing athleisure outfits.
Cons
- Limited Adjustability: The laceless design does not allow for a customizable fit, which might be a drawback for those preferring adjustable snugness.
- Moderate Support for Intense Activity: While comfortable, they may not offer the same level of secure support as laced trainers for high-impact or very dynamic sports.
- Synthetic Upper: While durable, some users might prefer natural materials for certain breathability or feel qualities.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and extend the life of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic upper, gently wipe any dirt or scuffs with a damp cloth using a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Outsole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a stiff brush or an old toothbrush and mild soapy water to remove accumulated dirt and debris.
- Drying: Allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees or stuffing with paper to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your trainers, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
