adidas Originals Gazelle Indoor - Yellow - 8.5

These shoes feature a premium suede and synthetic leather upper, a comfortable leather lining, and a distinctive translucent gum rubber outsole. The suede is sourced responsibly through the Leather Working Group (LWG).

No, while the original Gazelle Indoor was an indoor training shoe, this reissue is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. It is not recommended for high-performance sports like running or intense court activities.

For basic cleaning, use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. For tougher marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following its instructions carefully. Always allow them to air dry away from heat.

LWG-certified leather comes from tanneries that have been audited by the Leather Working Group, an organization that promotes sustainable and appropriate environmental business practices within the leather industry. This indicates a commitment to responsible sourcing.

Generally, adidas Gazelle models tend to fit true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary, so if you are between sizes, consider trying both or referring to an adidas size guide for exact measurements.

Suede is sensitive to water and can stain or get damaged. It is not recommended to wear these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. If caught in light rain, allow them to air dry properly and consider using a suede protector spray for added resistance.

The gum rubber outsole is known for its durability and excellent grip on various surfaces. With proper care and avoidance of excessive abrasion, it should provide long-lasting wear for casual use.

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. Brush in one direction to lift the fibers and revive the texture. A suede eraser can help remove stubborn marks before brushing.

The premium leather lining and suede upper may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations, allowing the materials to soften and mold to your feet over time. Ensure proper lacing for comfort.

Act quickly! Gently blot excess liquid. For dried stains, use a suede eraser to lighten or remove. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, applied sparingly and according to product instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
