FAQs

What is the primary material of the Superstar II trainers?

The trainers feature a supple nubuck upper with serrated leather 3-Stripes and a rubber shell toe.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While the outsole design offers grip inspired by basketball heritage, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not high-performance athletics.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the product's size chart and consider that vintage-inspired trainers may fit differently than modern ones. Reviews may offer additional insights into sizing.

How should I clean the nubuck parts of the shoe?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth or a suede eraser can be effective. Always allow nubuck to air dry naturally.

What does 'Olive Strata' refer to?

'Olive Strata' is the colorway description, indicating a shade of green for the main upper, complemented by 'Stone Khaki' and 'Off White' details.

Can these trainers be worn in rainy weather?

The leather and rubber components offer some protection, but the nubuck upper is not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to use protective sprays.

What is the main difference between Superstar II and other Superstar models?

The Superstar II often refers to specific iterations that may feature subtle material or design updates while retaining the core iconic silhouette. Specific details vary by release.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels stiff initially

This is common with leather and nubuck. Wear the shoes for short periods to gradually break them in. You can also use a shoe stretcher or stuff them with socks when not in use.

Creasing on the toe box

Some creasing is natural with wear, especially on leather. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure you are using the correct size and consider using shoe trees when storing them.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

While the zig-zag tread provides grip, extremely wet or polished surfaces can still be slippery. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris.

Discoloration of the leather stripes

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean the leather stripes gently with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The adidas Originals Superstar II trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult males and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are available in various UK sizes.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the nubuck and leather. For stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Cleaning the Outsole: Dirt on the rubber outsole can be cleaned with a brush or a damp cloth.
  3. Suede/Nubuck Care: Consider using a suede eraser for minor scuffs on the nubuck areas. A protective spray designed for leather and suede can help repel water and stains.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity.
