Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Refer to the adidas sizing chart and compare with your foot measurements. Consider the fit of similar adidas shoes you may own. If possible, try them on before purchasing or check the return policy.

Discoloration on the white leather 3-Stripes.

Use a cleaner specifically designed for white leather or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth. Wipe clean and allow to air dry.
