FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
The Adidas Originals Gazelle Indoor trainers are designed to fit true to size. It is recommended to order your usual size. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit – a snug fit or slightly more room.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the trainers offer some protection, the suede material is not ideal for heavy rain. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions to preserve the material's quality and appearance. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is the main difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor models?
The Gazelle Indoor model often features a slightly different sole construction, sometimes with a gum rubber sole or, in this case, a semi-translucent rubber sole that wraps around the shoe, optimized for indoor court performance and contemporary style, differentiating it from the original Gazelle's more classic outsole.
How often should I clean my suede trainers?
Regular light brushing after wear can help maintain the suede. A more thorough cleaning with a suede cleaner should be done as needed, depending on how often you wear them and the conditions they are exposed to. Aim for a deep clean every few months for frequently worn pairs.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They are not specifically designed for running and may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for serious athletic training or long-distance running.
What are the 3-Stripes made of?
The iconic 3-Stripes on these Gazelle Indoor trainers are made of leather, adding a premium accent to the suede upper.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Allow to air dry completely.
Laces are worn or damaged.
Replace laces with a standard pair of trainer laces of a similar length. You can usually find replacements at shoe stores or online retailers.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the sole is clean. For increased grip on smooth surfaces, consider using a sole grip enhancer spray designed for footwear, or consult a cobbler.
Trainer feels tight after initial wear.
The trainers are designed to fit true to size. If they feel tight, wear them with thinner socks or consider using a shoe stretcher for a few days.
