FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Originals Italia 70s generally fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit.

Can I wear these shoes for sports or running?

No, the Italia 70s are designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe, emphasizing vintage style and everyday comfort. They are not engineered for running or high-performance athletic activities.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a small amount of specialized leather cleaner with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions. Always condition the leather afterward.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The leather upper provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but these shoes are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended and can damage the leather.

What is the sole made of?

The sole features reliable rubber traction for the outsole and a dual-coloured EVA midsole for cushioning and lightweight comfort.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store your Italia 70s in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing over time.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable initially

The premium leather may require a short break-in period to conform to your foot shape. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the material to soften and adapt.

Shoes appear dirty or scuffed

For dirt, wipe with a damp cloth. For scuffs on leather, use a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Poor traction on wet surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. While the rubber provides reliable traction, exercise caution on extremely wet or slippery surfaces, as these are not designed as weather-specific footwear.

Unpleasant odor develops inside shoes

Allow shoes to air out completely after each wear. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays designed for footwear. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.

Care Instructions

To maintain the premium look and feel of your adidas Originals Italia 70s, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper: Gently wipe dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a clean cloth. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is especially important for natural leather products.
  3. Sole Care: Clean the rubber outsole with a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush to remove dirt and maintain traction.
  4. Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  5. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
