FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, adidas Gazelle trainers generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on or consulting a size chart.
How do I clean the suede material?
For basic cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a dedicated suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry naturally.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
Suede is not waterproof and is highly susceptible to water damage. It is strongly advised to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. For light drizzle, consider using a good quality suede protector spray beforehand.
Do these trainers offer good arch support?
The adidas Gazelle features a cushioned midsole that provides standard comfort and support for casual wear. For individuals requiring significant arch support, aftermarket insoles can be used, provided they fit comfortably within the shoe.
Are they suitable for athletic activities?
No, these trainers are designed for casual and lifestyle wear, not for high-performance athletic activities like running, training, or football. Their construction is optimized for comfort and style in everyday settings.
How should I store my Gazelle trainers?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture, prolonging their lifespan.
What is the material of the 3-Stripes?
The iconic 3-Stripes on this specific model are made of serrated leather, providing a subtle contrast in texture and durability against the suede upper.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction. This will lift the fibers and restore the texture.
Trainers got wet and now have water stains
Allow the trainers to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently rub the affected area. For stubborn stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner might be needed.
General dirt and dust accumulation
Regularly brush your trainers with a soft-bristle suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For dirt caught in the sole's texture, use a damp cloth or a soft brush.
Uncomfortable fit or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, allow a short break-in period. Adjust lacing for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider using thicker or thinner socks to optimize comfort.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede trainers. Suede is a delicate material that requires specific attention.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to avoid damaging the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks or stains, use a dedicated suede eraser or a slightly damp, clean cloth. Blot the stain gently; do not rub vigorously.

- Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Let them air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Water: Avoid wearing your suede trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions whenever possible.
