FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The waxed canvas offers some water resistance, but the suede and overall construction are not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
How do I clean the frayed edges?
The frayed edges are a design feature and should generally be left as they are. Avoid excessive brushing or cleaning on these specific areas to maintain the intended aesthetic.
What is the fit like?
These shoes have a regular fit. It is recommended to refer to Adidas sizing charts for the most accurate fit, especially when ordering online.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, these low shoes are designed to be worn with socks. Thin to medium thickness socks are recommended to maintain a comfortable fit.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of rubber, providing durability and traction.
How do I care for the leather lining?
The leather lining can typically be wiped with a slightly damp cloth if it becomes dirty. Ensure the shoe is dry before wearing again.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted.
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully.
Waxed canvas shows scuffs.
Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, a light reapplication of wax may be considered, though this is typically unnecessary for normal wear.
Shoes feel stiff initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. The leather lining and suede will naturally conform to your foot shape over time.
Laces are worn out.
Replace laces with standard flat shoelaces of a similar length and color for a seamless look.
