Product Information

Full details

The adidas Gazelle Indoor is for enthusiasts and casual wearers seeking a blend of iconic heritage style and everyday comfort. Its key win is the authentic one-to-one reissue of a classic design, offering a distinct retro look with modern wearability. A potential caveat is its original design as an indoor training shoe, which means while versatile, its primary function isn't high-performance athletic activity.

FAQs

Are these suitable for sports or running?

No, the adidas Gazelle Indoor is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear. While it has roots in indoor training, it does not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for high-performance sports or running.

How do I protect the suede from water and stains?

It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before wearing the shoes for the first time. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning or if you anticipate exposure to moisture. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles.

Do Gazelle Indoor shoes fit true to size?

Generally, adidas Gazelle models are considered true to size for most wearers. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to try the larger size or consult a size guide.

What materials are the shoes made of?

The upper is primarily made of premium suede leather, sourced through the Leather Working Group. The lining is synthetic, and the outsole is made of translucent gum rubber. They are also made in part with other preferred materials for sustainability.

Can I clean the white stripes and heel tab?

Yes, for the contrast 3-Stripes and heel tab, which are typically synthetic leather, you can use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe them clean and then wipe dry. Avoid getting the suede too wet.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a suede eraser or a small amount of suede cleaner with a soft cloth, brushing gently in one direction.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The leather upper needs time to break in. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the material to mold to your foot. Thinner socks might also help during the break-in period.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Sometimes a squeak can occur between the insole and the sole. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a little baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. This can reduce friction causing the squeak.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The adidas Gazelle Indoor sneakers require no special setup. Simply unbox, loosen the laces, slip them on, and adjust the lacing for a comfortable fit.

Care Instructions

General Cleaning:

  • For light dust or dirt, use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently brush away debris.
  • Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.

Spot Cleaning Suede:

  • For minor marks, use a suede eraser (often looks like a block of rubber) to gently rub away the stain.
  • For more stubborn stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner to a clean cloth and dab gently. Avoid saturating the suede.

Protecting Suede:

  • It is highly recommended to apply a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically, especially if you anticipate exposure to moisture. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
  • Avoid wearing suede in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the material.

Cleaning the Gum Sole:

  • Use a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth to clean the rubber outsole.
  • For scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized sneaker sole cleaner can be effective.

Storage:

  • Store your Gazelles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Use shoe trees or stuff them with paper to help maintain their shape when not in use.
