FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the structure of the shoe. Stick to gentle manual cleaning.
Can children with wider feet wear these?
The classic Gazelle silhouette has a standard fit. If your child has wide feet, consider testing them with thinner socks.
Are the laces adjustable?
The included stretch laces are designed for a convenient, set-and-forget fit, but they can be replaced with traditional laces if a tighter lock is needed.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Keep them in a well-ventilated area, avoiding humid environments that might cause the suede to degrade or develop odors.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a suede-safe protective spray to improve resistance to light moisture.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently rub the surface in one direction to restore the nap.
Stretch laces have lost tension
Check for obstructions in the eyelets or consider replacing them with standard laces if the elasticity is permanently compromised.
Dirt stains on the upper
Use a dedicated suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a specialized leather cleaner, then allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Gazelle features a suede exterior, proper care is essential. To keep your trainers looking new, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If the shoes become dusty, use a soft-bristle brush to gently lift debris from the suede fibers. Avoid washing these shoes in a machine, as submersion can damage the suede texture and the adhesive bonds. If they get wet, air dry them naturally away from heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
