FAQs
How do I properly clean the suede upper?
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions, then brush the nap back into place.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports activities?
The adidas Gazelle Indoor is a lifestyle sneaker designed as a reissue of a classic indoor training shoe. While comfortable for casual wear, they are not engineered for performance running, intense sports, or high-impact activities.
What does 'LWG leather' mean?
'LWG leather' refers to leather sourced from tanneries certified by the Leather Working Group. This certification indicates that the leather production process meets high environmental standards, promoting sustainable and responsible practices.
Do these Gazelle Indoor sneakers run true to size?
Yes, these sneakers feature a regular fit and generally run true to adidas' standard sizing. We recommend choosing your usual UK shoe size.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
Due to the suede upper, these shoes are not ideal for wet conditions. Suede can be damaged by water and is prone to staining. If worn in light drizzle, ensure they are allowed to air dry thoroughly away from direct heat.
What is the T-toe overlay?
The T-toe overlay is a classic design feature, typically a suede or leather reinforcement over the toe box. It adds to the shoe's durability and is a signature aesthetic element of the Gazelle and other iconic adidas models.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
For optimal comfort, wear socks that suit your preference. Thin or medium-thickness socks work well with the regular fit. The choice of material (cotton, synthetic) is up to your personal comfort and desired breathability.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner designed for leather, following product instructions carefully. Avoid scrubbing vigorously.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. The Gazelle Indoor has a regular fit. Allow a brief break-in period for the materials to conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, consider using thin socks or adjusting lacing.
Sole has reduced grip
Check the translucent gum outsole for dirt or debris accumulation. Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to restore traction. Ensure the sole is completely dry before wearing.
Scuffs or marks on gold foil details
Handle with care to prevent scuffs. For minor marks, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes on foil areas.

Setup: Simply lace up the shoes using the standard lace closure for a snug and secure fit. No special break-in period is typically required, though minor adjustments might be needed as you wear them. Compatibility: These Gazelle Indoor sneakers are designed for adult wearers, suitable for casual use across various settings. Their versatile style makes them compatible with a wide array of clothing, from jeans and t-shirts to more tailored casual outfits. Care: The upper is primarily suede leather. To maintain its appearance, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for leather is recommended. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, as water can damage suede. Allow shoes to air dry naturally if they become damp. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap.
