FAQs

How should I clean my adidas Gazelle Trainers?

The recommended care for these trainers is spot clean only. Use a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap to gently wipe away dirt from the leather upper. Avoid machine washing or soaking them in water.

Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?

While the Gazelle has roots in sports, it is primarily designed as a fashion and casual lifestyle trainer. It offers comfort for everyday wear and light activity but is not engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic sports.

What materials are these trainers made from?

The outer material is leather, the lining is synthetic, and the sole is made of durable rubber.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The trainers feature a front lace-up fastening which allows you to adjust the tightness to your preference, ensuring a secure yet comfortable fit. They are available in standard UK adult male sizing.

Will the leather stretch over time?

Yes, like most genuine leather footwear, the leather upper on your Gazelle Trainers may soften and subtly conform to the shape of your foot with regular wear, improving overall comfort.

Can I wear these trainers in all weather conditions?

While the leather provides some protection, it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or very wet conditions to preserve the quality and longevity of the leather. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the front lace-up fastening to customize the fit. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly constricted. Consider trying them on with different sock thicknesses.

Scuffs or minor marks on the leather upper

Gently spot clean the affected area using a soft, damp cloth and a very mild soap if necessary. Wipe dry immediately and avoid excessive rubbing.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles on certain surfaces. It often subsides with continued wear. Ensure the trainers are completely dry inside and out, as moisture can contribute to squeaking.

Laces frequently come undone

Ensure you are tying your laces with a secure knot. For added security, you might consider using a double knot, especially during more active use.

For care, it is crucial to adhere to the manufacturer's recommendation: Spot clean only. Avoid immersing the trainers in water or using harsh cleaning agents. For light dirt, use a damp cloth to gently wipe the leather exterior. The outer material is leather, the lining is synthetic, and the sole is rubber, so proper spot cleaning helps maintain the integrity and appearance of these materials.
