FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Japan series is designed primarily for casual and lifestyle wear rather than performance running.

What material is used for the upper?

These trainers feature a premium leather upper construction.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While durable, leather is susceptible to water damage; it is recommended to apply a leather protectant and avoid deep puddles.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers use standard adult UK sizing; refer to your previous adidas footwear sizes for the best fit.

Is the sole replaceable?

No, the rubber sole is integrated into the shoe design and is not intended to be replaced.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Use wooden or plastic shoe trees when the trainers are not being worn to help retain their shape.

Difficulty cleaning the rubber sole

Use a mild soap solution and a toothbrush to gently scrub the sidewalls of the sole, then wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Gold branding showing signs of wear

Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges near the branding areas to preserve the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Japan Trainers remain in peak condition, follow these steps:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after every few uses to remove dust and debris.
  2. Stain Removal: For stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner applied to a soft brush, followed by a light buffing.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or color fading.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a leather protectant spray to repel moisture and light staining, ensuring you test a small, inconspicuous area first.
  5. Fit: Ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase, as these are tailored for adult feet with a specific structure.
