Gently wipe the metallic leather with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.

What is the difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor?

The Gazelle Indoor is a specific iteration that often features design elements suited for indoor court use or a slimmer profile, whereas the standard Gazelle might have variations in materials or sole construction.

The lining is made of synthetic material, designed for comfort and durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on. Leather may stretch slightly with wear; consider using shoe trees to help break them in.

Suede T-toe looks matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner can be used sparingly, following product instructions.

Discoloration on the metallic upper

Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which can damage the metallic finish.

Rubber outsole is dirty

Clean with a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water. Ensure the outsole is dry before storing.
