FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

The Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes were originally designed for indoor sports but are now primarily considered a fashion sneaker. They are best suited for casual wear and light activities, not high-performance running or intense sports.

How should I clean the suede upper?

For general cleaning, use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Adidas Gazelle models generally fit true to size for most wearers. We recommend consulting the Adidas size guide if you are unsure or between sizes.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The suede upper is not waterproof and prolonged exposure to water can damage the material. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their appearance and integrity.

What is the gum rubber outsole for?

The gum rubber outsole provides durable traction and contributes to the shoe's classic, retro aesthetic. It offers good grip on various dry, indoor, and urban surfaces.

What is the material inside the shoe?

The shoe features a comfortable leather lining, which enhances the overall feel and durability.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush. For stubborn dirt, use a suede cleaner product designed for athletic footwear, following its instructions carefully.

Shoes feel too stiff initially

Gazelle Indoor shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Laces frequently come untied

Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. You may also experiment with different lacing techniques to find one that holds more securely.

Outsole has lost its grip

Clean the gum rubber outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting traction.
