FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

While they feature classic running technology, they are designed as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for daily wear and light activity.

How do I clean the metallic overlays?

Wipe the overlays gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges that could scratch the metallic finish.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Yes, they typically fit true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Are these limited edition?

Yes, the adidas x Pokémon collaboration is a limited-edition series.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No, you should never place your trainers in a dryer as the heat will damage the adhesives and the mesh material.

What is the benefit of the Adiprene+ unit?

The Adiprene+ forefoot unit provides enhanced responsiveness and energy return, making walking more comfortable.

Troubleshooting

Creasing of the upper material

Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the material retain its original shape.

Surface dirt on the mesh

Gently use a dry, soft brush to remove dust, or dab with a damp cloth; avoid vigorous scrubbing.

Insole discomfort

Ensure the insole is flat and not bunched at the heel; consider swapping for custom orthotics if you require extra arch support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique, high-visibility design perfect for collectors
  • Excellent breathability due to the open-mesh upper
  • Lightweight feel prevents fatigue during long days
  • Versatile style that transitions well from casual to active settings

Cons

  • Limited edition status may make replacement difficult
  • Primarily designed for lifestyle use rather than high-performance athletics
  • The metallic overlays require careful cleaning to maintain finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance tips: Always unlace the shoes before taking them off to preserve the shape of the heel counter. Given the mesh construction and metallic overlays, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water. Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping or discoloring. For sizing, these are standard adult UK sizes and pair well with casual apparel or athletic-leisure wear.
