FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While originally an indoor sports shoe, the Gazelle Indoor has been reimagined for everyday wear. They are best suited for casual use and light urban exploration, not high-intensity sports or rigorous training.

How do I choose the correct size?

The Adidas Gazelle Indoor Trainers typically run true to size. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. The mixed materials (textile, suede, leather, rubber) can be damaged by machine washing, leading to discoloration, material degradation, and adhesive failure. Always opt for spot cleaning and air drying.

What is the primary material of the upper?

This version features a unique blend including a cotton canvas or crochet-like textile upper, complemented by premium brown accents, suede toe cap, and leather overlays for durability and style.

Will the brown color fade over time?

Like most textiles, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause slight fading over time. Proper storage away from direct sunlight and using a protective spray can help preserve the color.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

The soft lining and cushioned sole make these trainers comfortable with various sock types. For optimal comfort and breathability, athletic or casual socks made of cotton or synthetic blends are ideal. The choice also depends on your personal style and desired look.

Troubleshooting

My trainers look dirty or faded.

Clean the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap, and use a suede brush/eraser for the suede toe cap. Ensure to air dry. Regular cleaning prevents significant buildup.

The fit feels too loose/tight.

Adjust the lace closure. Experiment with different lacing patterns to find the optimal comfort and support for your foot shape. Wearing appropriate socks can also impact fit.

The gum sole is losing its grip or appears scuffed.

For light scuffs, a rubber eraser can sometimes help. For accumulated dirt, wipe the sole with a damp cloth. The gum rubber naturally wears with use, which is part of its character.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and versatile design suitable for various outfits and occasions.
  • Comfortable for all-day wear due to cushioned sole and soft lining.
  • High-quality material combination (textile, leather, suede) offers durability.
  • Authentic retro aesthetic with distinctive gum sole and 3-Stripes.
  • Elevates street style with a unique, textured brown finish.

Cons

  • Canvas/suede materials may require specific cleaning and care.
  • Primarily designed for lifestyle/casual wear, not intense athletic performance.
  • Limited water resistance due to textile upper material.
  • Color (brown) might show dirt more readily depending on environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Your Gazelle Indoor Trainers come ready to wear. Simply unbox, lace them up to your preferred snugness, and they're ready to go. The lace closure allows for adjustable fit.

Compatibility

These trainers are highly versatile and compatible with a wide array of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair exceptionally well with:

  • Jeans (skinny, straight, wide-leg)
  • Chinos or casual trousers
  • Skirts and dresses for a sporty-chic look
  • Shorts

They are designed as an adult lifestyle shoe, suitable for women who appreciate classic sneaker aesthetics. (Info needed: confirm if there is specific sizing difference for men's/women's or if it's a unisex style with 'female' being a categorization)

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Gazelle Indoor Trainers:

  1. General Cleaning: For textile and leather components, gently wipe with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the material.
  2. Suede Toe Cap Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water or liquid cleaners directly on suede as it can stain.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks on the textile upper, use a mild soap solution (like diluted laundry detergent) applied with a soft brush or cloth, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  4. Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage and shrinkage.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for mixed materials (textile and suede/leather) to help repel water and stains.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
