FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to reference an adidas size guide for your specific foot measurements.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives in the cupsole. Use manual cleaning methods instead.
Are these suitable for high-intensity gym workouts?
These are primarily lifestyle fashion trainers. They lack the lateral support and advanced cushioning required for high-intensity training or weightlifting.
What is the material of the upper?
This specific model features a high-quality leather upper, though other variations in the series may use faux leather.
Do they provide good grip?
Yes, the rubber cupsole is designed for excellent grip on urban surfaces like concrete and indoor flooring.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape of the leather upper.
Dirty rubber outsole
Use a soft brush and mild soapy water to scrub the rubber cupsole without saturating the leather.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the lace-up fastening is secure and consider using a thicker sock for a snugger fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Continental 80 trainers maintain their look, keep them away from excessive moisture. Use a soft cloth and a leather-safe cleaner to wipe down the exterior surfaces after use in dusty conditions. For the interior, ensure they are kept in a well-ventilated area to allow perspiration to dry. If you use custom orthotics, the standard insole can typically be removed, though check the fit to ensure your orthotic does not compromise the low-profile fit of the shoe. When lacing, ensure you do not overtighten the laces across the bridge of the foot to avoid premature creasing of the leather.
