FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard adidas sizing, but the platform sole can feel different than standard shoes, so ensure an accurate measurement for the child's UK size.

How do I clean the white sections?

Use a soft cloth and a mild soap solution for the rubber sole, taking care to avoid getting the suede upper wet.

Are these suitable for sports?

While they are comfortable for walking and casual activities, they are classified as lifestyle trainers and are not intended for high-intensity athletic training.

Can I use a waterproofing spray?

Yes, using a protective spray specifically designed for suede can help repel water and prevent stains, but test a small, inconspicuous area first.

What is the platform height?

The sole is designed with a triple-layer stack, giving a significantly thicker look than the standard Gazelle model.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty keeping laces tied

Use a double knot or replace with slightly longer laces if the current ones are too short for a secure bow.

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a soft-bristled suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap and remove surface dust.

Stiffness during first wear

The platform sole requires a short break-in period; wear the shoes for short intervals indoors to allow the materials to soften.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive platform design offers extra height and modern style
  • High-quality suede material provides durability and a premium feel
  • Reliable traction from the rubber outsole
  • Versatile design suitable for school or casual outings

Cons

  • Platform sole is heavier than standard thin-soled trainers
  • Suede requires more careful cleaning than synthetic leather
  • Triple-stacked sole may feel stiff during the initial break-in period

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to accommodate the child's foot width. To maintain the appearance of the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt or debris after use. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture. If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources such as radiators, which can cause the material to shrink or stiffen.
