FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These adidas Sportswear Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and street style. While durable for daily use, they do not feature the specialized support and cushioning required for high-performance running or intense sports activities.
How do I clean the white leather and textile upper?
For general cleaning, gently wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a shoe cleaner specifically formulated for leather and textile materials. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat.
Is the sizing accurate?
These trainers are listed in UK sizes. We advise trying on your footwear before wearing it outdoors or removing tags, as the box or label may sometimes state a US or Euro size which can differ from the UK equivalent.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended for these trainers. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall construction. Always follow manual cleaning instructions for the best results and to prolong the life of your footwear.
What does 'Terrace Culture vibe' mean?
The 'Terrace Culture vibe' refers to a classic, retro aesthetic inspired by European football fan fashion from the 1970s and 80s. It typically features clean lines, durable materials, and a timeless, understated cool that emphasizes casual, stylish comfort.
What materials are these trainers made from?
The upper part of these trainers is constructed from a combination of leather and textile, offering both durability and a stylish look. The sole is made of rubber, providing good traction and wear resistance.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, pull the laces firmer; for a looser fit, ease the tension. If discomfort persists, reconfirm the size against your usual footwear before considering other options.
White areas of the trainers get dirty quickly.
Regularly clean the white surfaces with a damp cloth immediately after noticing dirt or scuffs. For tougher marks, use a specialized white shoe cleaner or a gentle leather/textile cleaner designed to lift grime without damaging the material.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Squeaking in new trainers can often be caused by the sole or insole settling. This usually resolves with wear. If it persists, check that the insole is properly seated within the shoe, or if moisture might be trapped between the insole and the shoe's base.

Initial Setup (Wearing)
- Unboxing: Carefully remove your new trainers from their packaging.
- Sizing Check: Before removing any tags or wearing the trainers outdoors, try them on. Walk around indoors to confirm the UK 8.5 size provides a comfortable fit, paying attention to toe space and overall snugness. The box or label may state a US/Euro size that differs from the UK equivalent.
- Lacing: Lace them up evenly, ensuring a secure yet comfortable fit. Adjust the laces to your personal preference.
Compatibility
- Outfit: These trainers are best paired with casual attire such as denim, streetwear, athleisure, or everyday outfits.
- Occasion: Ideal for daily wear, social gatherings, light walking, and urban exploration. They are not designed for high-performance sports or rugged outdoor activities.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning:
- Leather & Textile Upper: Gently wipe away dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn stains, use a mild shoe cleaner specifically formulated for mixed materials. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
- Sole: Brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use warm, soapy water and a soft brush on the rubber sole.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with crumpled paper can help maintain their shape when not in use. Keep them out of direct sunlight.
- Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for leather and textile materials to help repel water and prevent stains.
