FAQs

Is this shoe suitable for professional skateboarding?

Yes, the Centennial 85 Low ADV features reinforced stitching and double-layered toe protection designed for skate performance.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a dry soft brush for surface dirt; avoid using water or standard cleaning soaps which can permanently stain or harden suede.

Does the EVA sockliner provide enough support?

Yes, the moulded EVA sockliner is designed to provide excellent impact cushioning for general activity.

Is this a wide-fit shoe?

The Centennial 85 Low ADV follows standard adidas sizing; if you typically require a wider fit, consider sizing up by half a size.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, submerging suede shoes in water and machine washing will damage the material and structural adhesive.

What is the primary material used for the exterior?

The exterior is crafted from high-quality suede, providing both durability and a premium aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or flat

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and lift the fibres.

Soles losing grip

Wipe the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and restore traction.

Creasing at the toe box

Insert shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the structure of the front panel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality suede construction offers a premium look and feel
  • Reinforced design significantly increases the lifespan of the shoe
  • EVA cushioning provides excellent comfort for daily walking
  • Versatile design blends classic basketball style with modern utility

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and staining
  • Requires regular maintenance to keep the nap of the suede clean
  • May feel slightly stiffer initially due to the heavy-duty cupsole

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, avoid wearing them in heavy rain, as water can damage the suede texture. If the shoes become dirty, allow mud to dry completely before using a soft-bristle brush to gently lift the debris from the suede nap. To maintain the shape of the trainers, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Ensure a proper fit by testing your size during the afternoon when feet are naturally at their largest.
