FAQs
What makes the Italia 70s special?
The Italia 70s are special because they revive a classic adidas design from the 60s and 70s, featuring premium nubuck leather and iconic detailing, offering a blend of heritage style and modern comfort.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These are primarily lifestyle shoes designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for intense athletic performance.
How do I clean the nubuck leather?
Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains, a nubuck eraser or specialized nubuck cleaner is recommended. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
What is the fit like?
They are designed for a regular fit and feature a lace-up closure for adjustability. It's recommended to check the size guide for the most accurate fit.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of rubber, providing durable traction and stability.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, nubuck leather is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. Using a protector spray can help, but it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What does 'Cardboard/Olive Strata/Gum' refer to in the colorway?
These terms describe the specific shades used in the shoe's color scheme. 'Cardboard' and 'Olive Strata' likely refer to brown and green tones, respectively, while 'Gum' typically indicates a natural rubber sole color.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. If discomfort persists, consider a larger size or alternative footwear.
Nubuck leather appears dirty or stained.
Use a nubuck eraser for dry marks. For wet stains, blot immediately with a dry cloth. For persistent stains, use a dedicated nubuck cleaner following product instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Outsole shows signs of wear.
Ensure you are not using the shoes for strenuous athletic activities for which they are not designed. Regular cleaning of the outsole can prevent buildup that might accelerate wear. If significant wear occurs, consider replacing the shoes.
