FAQs

What material is the upper of the adidas Gazelle made from?

The upper of these adidas Gazelle kids' trainers is crafted from soft suede, providing a premium feel and a classic, durable finish.

Are these trainers suitable for playing sports?

These Gazelle trainers are primarily designed for everyday casual wear and comfort. While durable for active play, they are not specialized athletic performance shoes for specific sports like running or football.

How do I clean the pink suede material?

For suede, it's best to use a specialized dry suede brush for surface dirt and a dedicated suede cleaner for stains. Avoid excessive water or harsh detergents, as they can damage the material.

Are adidas Gazelle kids' trainers true to size?

adidas Gazelle trainers generally run true to size for children. It's recommended to consult the adidas size guide and measure your child's foot if you are unsure.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

Suede is not naturally waterproof. While a suede protector spray can offer some resistance, it's advisable to avoid heavy rain or very wet conditions to preserve the material and its appearance.

Is the outsole durable enough for active kids?

Yes, the trainers feature a durable gum rubber sole that is designed for lasting wear and reliable traction, making them suitable for the everyday activities of active children.

What makes the adidas Gazelle design 'iconic'?

The Gazelle design is considered iconic because it's a timeless silhouette inspired by the 1991 original. It retains its classic appeal while incorporating modern comfort features, making it a beloved choice across generations.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty, dull, or matted

Use a dry suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a specialized suede cleaner designed for the material, following its specific instructions.

Laces frequently come untied during wear

Ensure the laces are tied with a secure double knot, especially for active children. If laces are old or worn, consider replacing them with new ones of appropriate length.

Shoes feel too loose or too tight for the child

Adjust the lace tension. For a snugger fit, pull laces tighter across the instep. For more room, loosen laces. Ensure the child is wearing socks of appropriate thickness for the shoe.

Gum rubber sole seems to lose grip

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Check the tread for excessive wear, though this is rare on new shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and adjusted to achieve a snug, comfortable fit around the child's foot. A double knot can be used for extra security during active play.
  2. Initial Wear: Encourage your child to wear the trainers for short periods initially to break them in, ensuring maximum comfort before extended use.

  • Age Group: Specifically designed for kids, offering appropriate sizing and support for growing feet.
  • Gender: Features a unisex design, making them suitable for all children.
  • Style: The classic Gazelle design and pink colour complement a wide array of casual, sporty, and even semi-formal children's outfits.

Care

  1. Suede Cleaning: For loose dirt, use a dry, soft suede brush to gently brush away debris and restore the nap. For tougher marks, use a specialized suede cleaner applied with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid scrubbing vigorously or using excessive water.
  2. Spot Treatment: A suede eraser can be used to gently rub away minor scuffs or smudges on the suede.
  3. Sole Cleaning: Wipe the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap to remove dirt and grime. Rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue.
  4. Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage the suede or cause colours to fade.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to help repel water and resist stains.
