FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These are lifestyle sneakers designed for comfort and style during everyday wear, not for rigorous athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the white suede?

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the suede with water.

The sole is made of rubber with a pronounced tread for enhanced grip.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

Yes, the Y-3 Gazelle series is available in various colorways, including black and black/brown options.

What material is the lining?

The shoes feature a comfortable leather lining.

How should I store these shoes?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a dust bag. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser.

Laces are difficult to adjust for a snug fit

Ensure laces are threaded evenly through eyelets. Re-lace if necessary, focusing on consistent tension.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The pronounced tread is designed for grip, but extremely smooth surfaces might still pose a challenge. Ensure the sole is clean from debris.
