FAQs

Are these trainers truly vegan?

Yes, the Adidas Stan Smith Vegan Black Trainers are constructed using vegan materials, meaning they contain no animal-derived products.

How do I clean the vegan leather upper?

Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution applied to the cloth, followed by a rinse with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Yes, the product description states that these trainers fit true to size.

What is the benefit of Ortholite cushioning?

Ortholite cushioning provides enhanced, long-lasting comfort, breathability, and moisture management for your feet throughout the day.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers grip, the vegan leather and textile materials are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and ensure they dry completely if they get damp.

What is the difference between these and traditional leather Stan Smiths?

The primary difference is the upper material. These are made from vegan leather, offering an animal-free alternative, while traditional Stan Smiths use cowhide leather. Care instructions may also vary slightly.

Troubleshooting

Stiff material upon arrival

Vegan leather can sometimes feel stiff initially. Wear the trainers for short periods to gradually break them in. Avoid aggressive bending or flexing.

Discoloration from dirt

Clean the trainers immediately with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution on the cloth, and then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Ensure they dry naturally.

Uncomfortable cushioning

The Ortholite cushioning is designed to mold to your foot over time. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and consider using aftermarket insoles if needed, although the integrated cushioning is usually sufficient.

Pros and Cons

  • Good grip and durability from the rubber outsole.
  • Classic, iconic style that remains relevant.

Cons

  • Vegan leather may show wear differently than real leather over time.
  • Specific cleaning methods are required to maintain the material.
  • May not offer the same level of breathability as some natural leather shoes.

Care Instructions: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Stan Smith Vegan trainers:

  1. Wipe Clean: Use a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and marks.
  2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the vegan leather and fabric.
  3. Air Dry: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  4. Slight Scuffs: For minor scuffs, a specialized vegan leather cleaner or a magic eraser (used gently) can be effective.
