Adidas Taekwondo Sneakers - White - UK 8.5

No, while inspired by Taekwondo footwear, these sneakers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They do not offer the specialized support, cushioning, or grip required for rigorous martial arts training or high-impact sports.

You can clean the upper with a damp, soft cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution or a dedicated sneaker cleaner. Gently scrub the affected area, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Always air dry.

The sole height at its highest point is 1.5 cm, providing a low-profile feel.

Adidas sneakers generally fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. We recommend checking Adidas's official size guide for the most accurate measurement and referring to your usual UK shoe size.

The upper is made from high-quality leather-like material, offering a durable and sleek appearance.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the sneakers. Always hand clean and air dry them.

Due to their low-profile, Taekwondo-inspired design, these sneakers offer minimal arch support compared to athletic shoes designed with specialized orthotics. They prioritize a lightweight, close-to-the-ground feel.

White sneakers, especially those with a leather-like upper, can show dirt easily. Implement a routine of wiping them down with a damp cloth after each wear. For deeper cleans, use a mild soap solution or a specialized sneaker cleaner as described in the care instructions.

Like many new shoes, these sneakers might require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the material to conform to your foot. Ensure you are lacing them correctly, not too tight, but secure. If discomfort persists, double-check your sizing against Adidas's size guide.

Squeaking can sometimes occur if there's moisture inside the shoe, or if the insole is rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and possibly applying a small amount of talcum powder beneath the insole. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing.
