FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adidas sizing; however, since they are high-tops with a structured fit, some users prefer a half-size up for extra room.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash suede trainers. Doing so will permanently ruin the material and the shoe's structure.
What is the best way to clean the sole?
Wipe the outer sole with a damp cloth and mild soap, then wipe away any excess residue with a clean, dry cloth.
Is the suede genuine?
Yes, this model features high-quality premium suede construction as a core element of its design.
Does the high-top restrict movement?
The ankle support is designed for security, but the collar is constructed to allow for natural movement while providing stability.
How often should I re-apply protective spray?
It is recommended to re-apply a protective spray every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on how frequently the shoes are worn outdoors.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dry dirt on the suede
Use a specialized suede brush to gently rub the surface in one direction to lift the dirt without damaging the nap.
Creasing at the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the original shape and reduce deep creases in the suede.
Minor liquid stains on the material
Dab the area with a clean, dry cloth immediately to absorb liquid; do not rub, as this can push the stain deeper into the suede fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your trainers in top condition, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray before their first use to guard against dust and moisture. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt from the suede surface. If a deeper clean is required, use a dedicated suede cleaner and avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the material and structure. When storing, keep the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the sesame colour from fading. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally; do not use direct heat sources like hair dryers or radiators, as they can cause the suede to warp or harden.
