How should I clean the shaggy suede upper?
Use a soft brush or suede eraser for dry dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth carefully and allow to air dry. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
Is this shoe suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and style. They are not intended for rigorous athletic performance.
What does the Off-White midsole represent?

Does the shoe come with special branding?
Yes, it features "KORN" branding on the heel and "adidas" branding on the underside of the tongue, in addition to the standard adidas 3-stripes.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore its texture. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser.
Water stains on the suede
Allow the shoe to air dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to lift the nap. Applying a suede protector spray beforehand can help prevent this.
Color fading
Store the trainers away from direct sunlight. Consider using a color-restoring product specifically for suede if fading is significant.
Soles appear scuffed
The Off-White midsole is designed with a vintage look. Minor scuffs can be gently cleaned with a damp cloth or a mild cleaning solution suitable for rubber.
