FAQs
What is the primary material of these trainers?
The primary material for these adidas Originals Gazelle Trainers is leather.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear and casual use. While they offer good grip and comfort, they are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.
How should I clean the brown leather upper?
Clean the leather upper with a soft brush for dust and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Always air dry away from heat.
What does 'low-profile design' mean?
A low-profile design refers to a shoe that sits close to the ground and has a sleek, streamlined appearance without much bulk or height, especially around the ankle.
What is the benefit of the gum sole?
The gum sole provides excellent traction and durability, offering a secure grip on various surfaces and contributing to the shoe's overall longevity.
Can these trainers be worn by women?
While this specific product listing is for men's sizing (UK 12.5), the Gazelle silhouette is generally considered unisex, and similar models are available in women's sizing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try wearing them with thinner socks. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot width, as some variations in the Gazelle line might offer a slightly different fit.
Gum sole is dirty
Use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the gum sole. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Leather shows creases or scuffs
Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, a leather conditioner or polish can help minimize their appearance. Store shoes with shoe trees or stuffing to help maintain shape and reduce creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are versatile and can be paired with a wide range of casual clothing, including jeans, shorts, and track pants. While this specific model is listed for males, the Gazelle series is often embraced for its unisex appeal.
Care:
- Cleaning: For regular cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the leather.
- Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the leather components. The gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
