FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or gym workouts?
No, the Adidas Gazelle Indoor Trainers are designed as lifestyle and casual footwear. They do not offer the specialized support, cushioning, or stability required for high-impact sports like running or intensive gym workouts.
What materials are used in the construction of these trainers?
These trainers feature a soft suede upper, durable leather lining, and a distinctive gum rubber outsole. Please note that specific material compositions might vary slightly between colorways or variants.
How do I clean the suede parts of my Gazelle Indoor trainers?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or harsh liquid cleaners directly on suede, as it can cause damage or discoloration.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Adidas Gazelle Indoor Trainers are not waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions can damage the suede and leather materials. Consider using a protective spray for water resistance if desired, but they are not designed for wet environments.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Generally, Adidas Gazelle models tend to fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. If you are unsure, referring to Adidas's official size guide or trying them on is recommended.
Can I put my Gazelle Indoor Trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is strongly not recommended for these trainers. The materials, especially suede and leather, can be significantly damaged by machine washing, leading to shrinkage, discoloration, and structural issues. Always clean them by hand according to the care instructions.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove superficial dirt. For minor marks, use a suede eraser.
Leather parts appear scuffed or dull.
Wipe the affected leather areas with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a small amount of mild leather cleaner can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth and allowing to air dry.
Gum sole has lost its shine or looks stained.
Clean the gum sole with a mixture of mild soap and warm water, using a soft brush or sponge. For tough stains, a gentle abrasive cleaner designed for rubber might be used sparingly, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
Trainers develop an odor.
Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the trainers and let it sit overnight to absorb odors, then tap out the excess. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your Gazelle Indoor Trainers, especially given their suede and leather construction.
- Cleaning Suede: For dirt or scuffs on the suede parts, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove particles. For tougher stains, a specialized suede eraser can be used. Avoid using water directly on suede, as it can cause stains or alter the texture.
- Cleaning Leather: For the leather lining or accents, wipe gently with a damp, soft cloth (microfiber is ideal) using a mild soap solution if necessary. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
- Cleaning Gum Outsole: The translucent gum rubber outsole can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution applied with a soft brush or cloth. Wipe dry immediately.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage materials.
- Protection: Consider using a suede and leather protective spray to guard against water and stains, re-applying periodically as directed by the product.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
