FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas Tokyo trainers are designed as lifestyle sneakers for casual wear and do not offer the specialized support or performance features required for serious running or athletic training.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, or gently use a damp cloth, avoiding saturation. Always let suede air dry.

What is the origin of the adidas Tokyo design?

The adidas Tokyo design is inspired by a track and field shoe created for the 1964 Olympic Games, which were held in Tokyo, Japan.

Are these trainers available in other colors?

This specific guide focuses on the Black and White variant. However, adidas often releases its archived styles in various colorways. Please check with retailers for other available options.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.

What does the metallic gold branding represent?

The metallic gold branding typically denotes special editions or historical re-releases, highlighting the shoe's connection to the 'adidas Tokyo' heritage.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the gum sole offers some grip, suede is not ideal for wet conditions as it can stain and be damaged by water. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner or test a damp cloth on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Gum sole is discolored.

Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Ensure the sole is dry before storing.

Shoe feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Wearing them with socks can also help improve comfort.

Laces become worn.

Replacement laces can be purchased from adidas or other footwear retailers. Ensure the length is appropriate for the shoe.
