FAQs

What material are the adidas Originals Rekord Trainers made of?

The upper of these trainers is made from leather, and they feature a high-traction rubber outsole.

Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic activities?

These trainers are primarily designed for everyday wear and casual outings. They offer comfort and style but are not optimized for intense athletic performance or running.

How should I clean my leather trainers?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt, and a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Always air dry naturally away from heat sources. Periodic conditioning of the leather is recommended.

What does 'Rekord' signify in the product name?

'Rekord' refers to the specific series or model line within adidas Originals, often associated with classic, retro-inspired designs.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection and the rubber outsole provides grip, they are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it is advisable to wear waterproof footwear. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet.

What is the main advantage of the padded ankle collar?

The padded ankle collar provides enhanced comfort and support around the ankle area, reducing potential friction and improving the overall fit.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the size guide and ensure your UK foot measurement corresponds correctly. These trainers are available in various UK adult sizes. The specific model mentioned is UK 11.5.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight, especially around the midfoot. If the tightness persists after a break-in period, consider a shoe stretcher or consult a professional.

Squeaking sound during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area. Ensure the laces are not rubbing excessively.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers high traction, performance on extremely wet surfaces can be limited. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider footwear specifically designed for those environments.

Care Instructions:
