FAQs

What material are the adidas BW Army Decon Trainers made from?

The trainers feature a primary upper made from leather, complemented by suede panelling. They have a rubber sole unit.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain texture. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and gentle blotting are recommended. Avoid getting the suede wet.

Are these trainers suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the durable construction and comfortable design make them well-suited for everyday activities and walking.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

While the leather offers some protection, the suede panels are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid heavy rain or to treat the shoes with a water-repellent spray for added protection.

What is the best way to maintain the leather?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth regularly. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for more thorough cleaning and conditioning to prevent drying and cracking.

What kind of outfits do these trainers complement?

They are highly versatile and pair well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and even some casual trousers or skirts, fitting both relaxed and smart-casual styles.

Do these trainers come in different colours?

The available product information indicates a primary black colourway with brown secondary colour details on the suede and sole. Other colour variants may exist.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

This is normal for leather products. To minimize creasing, ensure a proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Suede discolouration from water

Protect suede areas with a water-repellent spray specifically for suede. If discolouration occurs, try cleaning with a suede eraser or specialized cleaner.

Sole separation at the edges

For minor separation, a strong adhesive suitable for shoes might offer a temporary fix. For significant issues, consult a professional cobbler.

General dirt and scuffs

Clean leather with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks on leather, a magic eraser can be used cautiously. Suede areas should be brushed or cleaned with a suede eraser.

Care Instructions:

  1. Leather: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather.
  2. Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and blot gently. Avoid soaking suede panels.
  3. Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure the sole is dry before storage.
  4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
