adidas Adistar Cushion Sneaker - Leather - Size: 8.5 UK

This sneaker features a blend of premium leather, nubuck, and mesh for the upper, combined with a durable rubber tread sole.

While the adiPRENE+ cushioning provides excellent comfort and impact absorption, this particular model is primarily designed for casual wear and all-day comfort, rather than high-performance running or intense sports.

For leather, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner, followed by conditioning. For nubuck, use a dedicated nubuck brush to remove dirt and a specialized nubuck cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on a small, inconspicuous area first.

adiPRENE+ is an advanced cushioning technology from adidas designed to provide superior energy return and impact absorption in the forefoot, ensuring lasting comfort and responsiveness with every step.

Info needed: The product description does not specify that these sneakers are waterproof. Given the leather and mesh construction, it's generally best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

The 'collapsible upper' refers to the sneaker's layered design, which allows the materials to fold or conform to the foot, adding unique dimension and flexibility while worn. It is a design feature rather than implying it can be fully flattened for storage.

Song For The Mute is a contemporary fashion label that has collaborated with adidas to create this unique version of the Adistar Cushion sneaker, bringing their distinctive design aesthetic to the classic adidas silhouette.

Ensure laces are not overtightened. The 'collapsible upper' might take a few wears to conform to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size.

This can sometimes occur if moisture gets between the insole and outsole. Try removing the insole and cleaning both surfaces, then ensuring they are completely dry before reinserting. If it persists, check for any loose components.

Act quickly to treat stains. For leather, a damp cloth with mild soap might work, followed by leather cleaner. For nubuck, use a specialized nubuck eraser or cleaner and a nubuck brush. Avoid aggressive rubbing which can damage the material.

Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot, such as a double knot. Over time, laces can wear; consider replacing them if they become too smooth to hold a knot effectively.

Regular cleaning is key. For a comprehensive refresh, clean all components (mesh, leather, nubuck, sole) according to the care instructions. A protective spray designed for mixed materials can help repel dirt and water.
