FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper of these Superstar II trainers is made from premium leather.
How should I clean the shell toe?
The rubber shell toe can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth or a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and style. They are not specialized for athletic performance activities like running.
What does 'Cold Cement construction' mean?
Cold Cement construction refers to the method used to attach the outsole to the upper, providing a durable bond. It's a common technique for casual footwear.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The shoes feature a regular fit. It is recommended to try them on if possible. Adjusting the laces allows for a customizable snugness.
Can these shoes be worn in rainy weather?
The leather upper offers some protection, but they are not waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but prolonged exposure or heavy rain may damage the material and affect comfort.
What is the significance of the 3-Stripes and Trefoil logo?
The 3-Stripes and the Trefoil logo are iconic adidas branding elements that signify the product's heritage and association with the Originals collection.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially.
This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in gradually. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly during the break-in phase.
Slight creasing on the leather.
Natural creasing is expected with leather. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape and minimize deep creases when not in use. Regular conditioning can also help keep the leather supple.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole offers grip, performance on very wet surfaces can be limited. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider alternative footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers come ready to wear. Simply adjust the laces to achieve your preferred fit.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult women looking for a UK size 3.5. They are designed to pair well with a wide range of casual attire.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber shell toe and outsole. Stubborn marks on the midsole can often be removed with a mild soap and water solution.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. They can be hand-washed with mild detergent or machine-washed in a garment bag.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect them from dust and damage.
