FAQs

What materials are the adidas Originals Gazelle Trainers made from?

The upper is crafted from premium leather, and the sole is made of durable rubber. The lining is synthetic for added comfort.

How do I clean my Gazelle Trainers?

These trainers should be spot cleaned only. Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild cleaner and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?

The adidas Originals Gazelle Trainers are primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion shoe, offering comfort for everyday wear. They are not engineered for high-performance sports or running activities.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Order your usual UK shoe size. Please be aware that the size indicated on the shoe box or label might show a US/Euro size, which is a conversion and may differ from your UK size.

Can I wear these trainers all day?

Yes, with their comfortable fit, premium materials, and secure lace-up design, they are well-suited for all-day wear in various casual settings.

Do the trainers provide good traction?

Yes, the durable dimpled rubber outsole is designed to provide good traction on typical urban and casual surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Trainers appear dirty or scuffed

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild cleaning solution to gently spot clean the affected areas. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush.

Uncomfortable or loose fit

Adjust the lace-up fastening. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct UK size.

Slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. While the outsole provides good traction, exercise caution on extremely wet or slippery surfaces as these are not specialized grip shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting your adidas Originals Gazelle Trainers ready for wear is straightforward:

  1. Unbox and Inspect: Carefully remove your trainers from the packaging and inspect them for any imperfections.
  2. Lace Adjustment: Use the traditional lace-up fastening to adjust the fit. Ensure the laces are neither too tight nor too loose for optimal comfort and support.
  3. First Fit: It's recommended to try on your trainers at home to ensure they provide a comfortable and secure fit before your first outing. Please note that the size printed on the box or label may sometimes state a US/Euro size that differs from the UK size you selected; always verify the UK size you ordered.

Compatibility

These trainers are highly versatile and designed for broad compatibility with various fashion styles and social settings:

  • Outfit Versatility: Their timeless black design with classic white accents pairs well with almost any color palette and clothing style, from denim and chinos to tracksuits and casual dresses.
  • Occasion Adaptability: Perfect for casual outings, relaxed office environments, weekend activities, and social gatherings where style and comfort are paramount.

Care

To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your Gazelle Trainers, follow these specific care instructions:

  • Spot Clean Only: The trainers should be spot cleaned using a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the leather.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the trainers.
  • Air Dry: After cleaning, allow the trainers to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources.
  • Protect Suede/Leather: For the leather upper, especially if it has a suede-like finish, consider using a specialized leather or suede protector spray to repel water and stains. A soft brush can help maintain the nap of suede areas.
  • Proper Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees, to help them maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
