FAQs

What is the 'Bold' feature in these Gazelle shoes?

The 'Bold' refers to the distinctive stacked outsole, which gives the classic Gazelle design a modern, elevated look and a slight increase in height.

Are these Gazelle Bold shoes true to size?

Yes, these shoes are designed with a 'regular fit.' It is generally recommended to order your usual shoe size.

How should I clean the premium leather upper?

For routine cleaning, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While leather offers some natural water resistance, it's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture to protect the material and maintain the shoe's appearance. Consider using a waterproof spray designed for leather for added protection.

What kind of lining do these shoes have?

The adidas Gazelle Bold features a comfortable synthetic lining for enhanced wearability.

Is the outsole durable?

Yes, the shoes come with a dimpled gum rubber outsole, known for its durability and reliable traction, especially for everyday urban use.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The premium leather needs time to break in. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the material to soften and mold to your foot. This typically resolves within a few wears.

Cream leather shows dirt or scuffs easily.

Regularly wipe the shoes with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a leather-specific cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Prompt cleaning prevents dirt from setting in.

Shoes make a squeaking sound while walking.

New rubber outsoles or insoles can sometimes squeak. Try dusting the inside of the shoe under the insole with talcum powder. If the squeaking persists, it often resolves naturally with continued wear as the materials settle.

Outsole appears discolored or worn.

The gum rubber outsole is durable, but natural wear and dirt can affect its appearance. Clean with a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush. For deep-set grime, specialized rubber sole cleaners can be used.
