FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by running heritage, the Adizero Aruku are primarily designed for comfort and style in everyday wear. For serious running or athletic training, consider Adidas models specifically engineered for those activities.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the delicate fibers.
What is Swirlfoam cushioning?
Swirlfoam is an Adidas cushioning technology designed to provide a soft, responsive feel, offering a sensation of lightness and comfort with every step.
Are these shoes truly unisex?
Yes, the design is intended for both male and female wearers. Sizing should be chosen based on standard UK adult foot sizes.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand cleaning as described in the care instructions is the preferred method.
What is the primary benefit of the metallic overlays?
The metallic overlays are an aesthetic feature inspired by the Adizero PR, adding a modern, stylish touch to the shoe's design while referencing its performance lineage.
How should I store the shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the laces. For a tighter fit, ensure the laces are evenly distributed and pulled snugly. For a looser feel, slacken the laces, especially over the midfoot. If the overall fit is incorrect, consider if this is the right size or model for your foot shape.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, which can restrict circulation. Check that the shoes are the correct size and width for your feet. If discomfort persists, the Swirlfoam cushioning may need time to adapt to your foot's natural shape, or the shoe may not be suitable for your specific gait or activity.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture or friction between shoe components. Try ensuring the insoles are properly seated. If the noise persists, it might be a minor manufacturing anomaly that often resolves with continued wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure they fit comfortably before use. Adjust the laces for a secure and personalized fit.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Adizero Aruku shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the synthetic and textile upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing, which can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt from the Swirlfoam cushioning and rubber outsole. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can alter their shape and material integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
