FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily made of nubuck leather, with signature leather stripes.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Superstar II is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for everyday wear and casual activities, not for high-performance sports.

How do I find the right size?

These shoes come in standard adult sizing. Refer to the product's sizing chart and consider that the classic fit may require adjustments for wider feet.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and construction of the shoe.

What is the main difference between the Superstar II and other Superstar models?

The Superstar II typically refers to models that closely replicate the original 70s design, often featuring specific material combinations or construction details that honor the shoe's historical versions.

How should I store the shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears scuffed or dirty

Gently clean with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. For nubuck areas, use a specialized suede brush.

Shoes feel stiff upon first wear

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with a new pair of a similar length and color. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap.

Outsole is losing grip

Ensure the outsole is clean. For persistent issues, consider the age of the shoe, as rubber can degrade over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The adidas Originals Superstar II requires no setup; simply lace them up for a secure fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel. They are not intended for specific electronic device compatibility.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly.
  • Suede/Nubuck Care: Use a soft brush to clean nubuck areas and remove dry dirt. Avoid using water on nubuck.
  • Lining: The textile sockliner can be spot-cleaned if necessary. Ensure the shoe is aired out to prevent odors.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
