Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider the UK size conversion if you typically wear US or EU sizes. Due to the nature of leather, some initial stiffness may occur.
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or abrasive surfaces.
Gum sole discoloration
Gum soles can naturally yellow over time or with exposure to certain chemicals. Regular cleaning with a mild soap and water can help maintain their appearance. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
