FAQs

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The adidas Gazelle Trainers in this variant are primarily made of suede.

Are these trainers suitable for walking babies?

Yes, the low-profile cut and flexible design make them suitable for walking babies and toddlers engaged in everyday activities.

How should I clean the suede material?

Gently brush off dirt with a suede brush or eraser. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and air dry. Avoid machine washing or heavy wetting.

What does 'low profile shoe cut height' mean?

It refers to the shoe's design where it sits relatively low on the ankle, providing flexibility and ease of movement compared to high-top shoes.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather as they are not waterproof and the material can be easily damaged or stained by water.

What is the origin of the Gazelle trainer design?

The Gazelle originated as an indoor football trainer in the 1960s, emphasizing speed and agility, and has since evolved into a streetwear staple.

What other sizes and colors are available?

The Gazelle series is available in various UK sizes (e.g., 3-9) and colorways, including variations with blue secondary colors and different primary materials like leather.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dirty or stained.

Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For stains, use a lightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. For persistent stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoe feels too tight.

Ensure the correct size was purchased. Loosen the laces and allow the child to wear them for short periods to break them in. If still uncomfortable, consider a larger size or alternative footwear.

Color transfer from suede.

This can occasionally happen with new suede. Wearing darker socks can minimize the appearance of transfer. Protecting the shoes with a suede protector spray might help reduce future transfer.

Sole becoming detached.

Minor separation might be fixable with a suitable shoe adhesive. For significant detachment, contact customer support or consider replacement.
