Full details
The adidas Hoops Classic Trainers in Black are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic basketball aesthetics and modern comfort for everyday wear.

These trainers are ideal for casual outings and light athletic activities, offering a comfortable fit and a distinctive design.

How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Clean the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What does 'Hoops Classic' refer to?
The 'Hoops Classic' series draws inspiration from traditional basketball shoe designs, offering a blend of heritage style and modern comfort.
How do I ensure a good fit?

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

What kind of grip does the rubber outsole provide?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially
This is common with new synthetic materials. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Discoloration on the synthetic upper
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the shoes, as this can damage the material.
Slipping on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For very slick surfaces, be mindful of your footing as no outsole guarantees traction in all conditions.
Laces are difficult to keep tied
Try double-knotting the laces. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones that offer better grip.
