Is this model unisex?

What materials are used in the construction?

The shoe features a mix of high-quality textiles and synthetic materials designed for durability and comfort.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

We recommend referencing the standard adidas sizing guide and considering the width of your foot, as the silhouette is relatively streamlined.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can replace the factory insoles with your own orthotics or cushioning inserts if desired.

Does the Blue and White color fade easily?

The colors are high-quality, but avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and using proper cleaning methods will help maintain the vibrancy of the dyes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after a long day

Feet naturally swell throughout the day. Loosen the laces slightly to accommodate natural foot expansion.

Surface dirt on the white accents

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the affected areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. To ensure a proper fit, it is recommended to wear the socks you intend to pair with the shoes while trying them on.

Care Instructions:

  • Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural materials and adhesives.
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
  • Use a water-repellent spray to protect the fabric against light environmental stains.
