FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?

These shoes are primarily designed for fashion and casual wear. While they offer a comfortable fit and decent grip for walking, they are not recommended for high-impact sports or intense athletic training due to their delicate materials and construction.

How do I clean the floral jacquard patterns?

Gently wipe the patterned areas with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using strong cleaning agents. For stubborn marks, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in delicate fabrics.

What is the main difference between this and other adidas shoes?

The main difference lies in the unique collaboration with Liberty London, featuring exclusive floral patterns and intricate embroidery on a soft leather upper, offering a distinct artistic and elegant aesthetic compared to standard athletic or casual adidas models.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these leather shoes in wet weather. Moisture can damage the leather and affect the embroidered details. If they do get wet, ensure they are dried properly at room temperature, away from heat sources.

What size should I order if I'm between sizes?

Given the soft leather upper, these shoes tend to offer a bit of flexibility. However, for a snug fit, consider sizing down if you are between sizes. If you prefer more room, sizing up might be suitable. Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for the most accurate measurement.

What does 'Taekwondo Mei Ballet' refer to in the name?

The 'Taekwondo' likely refers to the silhouette's inspiration from athletic shoe designs, while 'Mei Ballet' suggests a graceful, elegant, and potentially feminine aesthetic, blending sporty elements with ballet-like refinement.

Are there other colorways or patterns available?

Yes, this collaboration often features various colorways and pattern variations. Please check the product listings for available options, as specific models like this white floral version may have counterparts in different colors or designs.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

Ensure the shoes fit correctly. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain their shape. Avoid excessive bending of the foot while wearing.

Embroidery or pattern showing signs of wear

Handle shoes with care, avoiding scuffing or snagging. Clean gently with a soft cloth as per care instructions. Consider professional cleaning if damage is significant.

Outsole grip feels reduced

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For persistent issues, check for wear and tear on the tread pattern. Minor cleaning with a damp cloth should restore grip.

Discoloration on leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth and use a leather conditioner specifically designed for white leather if necessary. Always test products on a small, hidden area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no assembly. Simply unbox and wear.

Compatibility: The adidas Originals x Liberty London Taekwondo Mei Ballet shoes are designed for casual wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They are suitable for adult wearers.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the leather and embroidery.
  2. Protection: For the floral jacquard patterns and embroidery, consider using a specialized leather protector spray suitable for delicate materials. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, as this can prevent the leather from breathing.
  4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can cause the leather to crack or warp.
