FAQs

Are these shoes good for walking?

Yes, they are suitable for walking, though they are built with extra durability features for skating that make them slightly more rigid than pure lifestyle sneakers.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a dry brush or a suede-specific cleaning block. Avoid using soap and water as this can damage the suede texture.

Can I use these for professional skateboarding?

Yes, they are designed as a skateboarding version of the Gazelle with specialized foxing tape and a reinforced toe for trick performance.

Do they fit true to size?

Yes, these are standard UK sizing. If you prefer a loose fit for skating, some users prefer a half size up, but they are designed to fit true.

What is the benefit of the higher foxing tape?

The higher foxing tape acts as a barrier against grip tape, preventing the suede from tearing during ollies and other board tricks.

Troubleshooting

The suede is showing water stains

Use a specialized suede eraser or a dry suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface stains after they have dried.

The shoe feels too tight at first

The moulded sockliner and structured toe require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter sessions until the material adapts to your foot shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced durability for skateboarding
  • Superior outsole traction
  • Secure and comfortable moulded sockliner
  • Iconic adidas Originals design
  • Reinforced toe area

Cons

  • Stiffer feel compared to non-skate Gazelle models
  • Specific green colorway may not match every wardrobe
  • Requires break-in time for maximum comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Gazelle trainers maintain their integrity, avoid machine washing. For daily care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust from the suede upper. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from shrinking or becoming brittle. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing skate-appropriate socks that provide a balance of padding and breathability. These trainers are true-to-size, so select your standard UK footwear size for the best experience.
