FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of the adidas Originals Italia 70s is constructed from premium 'Cloud White' leather.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports activities?

No, these shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and street style, not for performance running or intense sports activities.

How do I clean the white leather upper?

For light dirt, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first and follow product instructions.

Are the adidas Originals Italia 70s true to size?

Info needed: [Generally, adidas Originals shoes tend to run true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit. This specific pair is UK size 5.]

What kind of sole do these shoes have?

The shoes feature a durable rubber outsole for traction and a dual-coloured EVA midsole for lightweight cushioning and comfort.

Can I wear these shoes in rainy weather?

While the leather offers some protection, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended as it can damage the leather. Applying a water and stain protector can help.

Do these shoes come with a warranty?

Info needed: [Warranty policies typically depend on the retailer or manufacturer. Please refer to your purchase receipt or the retailer's official warranty information for details on coverage.]

Troubleshooting

White leather appears dull or dirty.

Regularly wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized white leather cleaner following product instructions, and consider a leather conditioner to restore luster.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations, gradually increasing wear time, to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Scuffs or marks on the rubber toe cap or sole.

Clean with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized rubber cleaner can be effective.

Shoes emit an odor after prolonged wear.

Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry before storage.

Laces fraying or coming undone frequently.

Inspect laces for damage. If frayed, replace them with new, durable laces. Ensure you are tying them securely with a double knot if necessary.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will preserve the premium look and feel of your leather shoes:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper:
  • Regular Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after each wear.
  • Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently rub the affected area in circular motions. Info needed: [Always test leather cleaner on an inconspicuous area first].
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, detergents, or solvents as these can damage the leather.
  1. Protecting the Leather:
  • Water and Stain Protector: Apply a high-quality leather protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to guard against water damage and stains.
  • Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Info needed: [Follow product instructions for application].
  1. Cleaning the Sole and Toe Cap:
  • Use a brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the rubber outsole and toe cap.
  1. Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
  2. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  3. Rotation: Avoid wearing the same pair every day to allow them to air out and extend their lifespan.
