FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
The adidas Taekwondo Core shoes are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday activities. They do not offer the specialized cushioning and support required for intense running or athletic performance.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts for women's footwear. The listed size (UK 7.5 in this case) corresponds to a specific foot measurement. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the brand's sizing guide.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed with synthetic materials or leather, offering a balance of durability and a clean aesthetic, accented with contrasting white details.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesive, and overall structure of the shoe.
What is the main advantage of the gum sole?
The gum sole provides excellent durability and reliable traction, while also contributing to the shoe's classic, heritage-inspired look.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The Taekwondo silhouette generally offers a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find them snug. Trying them on or checking reviews specifically mentioning fit for wider feet is advisable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thin socks for initial use to allow them to stretch slightly. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.
Gum sole is scuffed
Minor scuffs on the gum sole can often be cleaned using a damp cloth or a specialized shoe cleaner for rubber soles. For deeper scuffs, a magic eraser may be used with caution.
White accents appear dirty
Gently clean the white accents with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the black and white upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the material. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap diluted in water.
- Cleaning the Gum Sole: Use a soft brush or an old toothbrush with a little water and mild soap to gently scrub the gum sole. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and potential damage.
