FAQs
Are the Tangum trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adidas sizing. We recommend purchasing your usual UK size.
Can I wear these for intense sports?
While the Tangum features court-inspired design elements, it is primarily a lifestyle trainer and not recommended for high-intensity competitive sports.
How do I best store these shoes?
Store them in a well-ventilated, dry area. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape over time.
Are the suede parts waterproof?
No, the suede overlays are not waterproof. It is advised to use a protective suede spray to help repel water and prevent stains.
What is the best way to clean the white leather?
Use a mild leather cleaner or a mixture of water and a very small amount of gentle soap, wiping carefully with a microfiber cloth.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the white leather
Wipe the surface with a clean, slightly damp cloth or a dedicated leather sneaker wipe.
Difficulty cleaning suede overlays
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry, soft-bristle brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the nap.
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking the eyelets for any obstructions, or consider replacing them with high-friction flat laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension upon first wear to prevent heel slippage. For compatibility, these trainers run standard in sizing, so your regular UK shoe size is recommended. To care for your Tangum trainers, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede overlays and a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for the white leather panels. Avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and leather material, and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.
