FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing actual basketball?

While inspired by basketball, these are designed as lifestyle sneakers for everyday fashion rather than high-performance court play.

How do I determine my size?

The Centennial 85 High series follows standard adidas adult sizing; stick to your usual sneaker size for the best fit.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the materials used are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to maintain the integrity of the materials.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can replace the factory insoles with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support.

How do I keep the white parts of the sole clean?

Regular maintenance with a dedicated sneaker cleaning wipe or mild soap and a soft brush will keep the midsole looking fresh.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight around the ankle.

Loosen the top two rows of laces to reduce pressure and allow for greater flexibility during movement.

Scuff marks on the midsole.

Gently scrub the affected area with a damp sponge and a small amount of non-abrasive cleaning solution.

Laces coming untied frequently.

Ensure you are using a double knot or consider replacing the laces with a slightly more textured material for better grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic vintage basketball design
  • Sturdy construction for daily durability
  • Versatile color scheme fits various outfits
  • High-top silhouette offers ankle support

Cons

  • High-top design takes longer to put on and remove
  • Limited to specific grey/green color palette
  • May require break-in period for optimal comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Centennial 85 High Trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple care steps:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild detergent if necessary for tougher stains on the midsole.
  2. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
  3. Lacing: Adjust the laces to your comfort preference. Since these are high-tops, you may choose to leave the top eyelets unlaced for a looser, relaxed aesthetic or pull them tight for maximum ankle lockdown.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. It is recommended to wear them with mid-crew or longer socks to prevent potential rubbing against the ankle collar during the initial break-in period.
