FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Superstar 82 generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to verify their size against the adidas official size guide.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers intended for casual wear and walking; they do not provide the technical support required for running or high-impact athletics.
How do I protect the white parts of the shoe?
Using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and rubber can help maintain the appearance of the white accents.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as machine washing can damage the adhesive and the shape of the leather. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, which provides a balance of durability and a premium aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your feet naturally.
Difficulty cleaning the shell toe
Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water applied with an old toothbrush to scrub away stubborn discoloration.
Creasing on the upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain their shape and minimize deep creases in the leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Superstar 82 trainers, keep the following care instructions in mind:
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt from the leather upper with a soft cloth. For the rubber shell toe, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush to remove surface stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
- Maintenance: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry naturally. Avoid using direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a neutral design that complements a wide range of casual attire, from denim to activewear, making them a highly compatible addition to any rotation.
