FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities like running or training?

No, the adidas Originals Italia 70s are designed specifically for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. They are not engineered with the support, cushioning, or performance features required for running or strenuous athletic activities.

How do I properly clean the leather upper?

To clean the leather, gently wipe off dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Always follow the cleaner's instructions and test on a small, hidden area first. Finish with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

What is the fit like for these shoes?

These shoes feature a regular fit with a traditional lace closure, allowing for adjustment to suit most foot shapes comfortably. We recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size.

Are the adidas Originals Italia 70s waterproof?

The leather upper provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but these shoes are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather and maintain the shoe's condition. A protective spray designed for leather can add a layer of water repellency.

What does 'EVA midsole' mean for comfort?

EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) is a lightweight, foam-like material used in the midsole to provide cushioning and absorb impact. This contributes to the shoe's overall comfort for everyday walking and standing.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles in the adidas Originals Italia 70s are typically removable, which can be useful for cleaning or for inserting custom orthotics if needed.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dry.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for athletic shoes, following the product instructions. This will help moisturize and restore the leather's natural luster.

Stubborn scuffs or marks on the white leather.

For light scuffs, a white sneaker cleaner or a magic eraser can often work. For deeper marks, a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush should be used gently. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Often, squeaking comes from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or baking soda inside the shoe, then replace the insole.

Outsole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

New rubber outsoles can sometimes lack immediate grip. Lightly scuffing the soles on a rough, dry surface like concrete can help break them in and improve traction. Ensure the soles are clean and free of any residue.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable for casual, everyday wear with EVA cushioning.

Cons

  • Not engineered for high-performance athletic activities.

These shoes require no elaborate setup; simply lace them up to your preferred comfort level. They are highly compatible with a wide range of casual attire, from denim to track pants, making them a versatile addition to any wardrobe. For optimal care, regularly wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain the material's suppleness and prevent cracking. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the leather and structural integrity. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a stiff brush and mild soap and water. Storing them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight will help preserve their condition.
