FAQs

What is the primary material of the adidas Originals Paris shoes?

The primary material is 'Grey Four' suede for the upper, with contrasting black detailing and a rubber sole unit.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

No, the adidas Originals Paris are designed as lifestyle and casual wear shoes, not for high-impact athletic activities. They offer comfort for everyday walking.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a specialized suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully. Avoid soaking the suede.

What does the 'City Series' refer to?

The 'City Series' was a collection of sneakers launched by adidas in the 1970s, inspired by major European cities. The Paris model is a revival of this iconic line.

What is the fit like for these shoes?

They feature a low-profile, slim silhouette. The fit is generally considered true to size, but suede can offer a little give after breaking in.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions as the material can be easily damaged by water and stains. Using a suede protector spray can offer some resistance.

What other colors or sizes are available?

The adidas Originals Paris is available in various sizes and may come in other colorways. Please check the product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner. Allow to air dry completely afterward.

Shoes feel too tight initially

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them for short periods indoors to break them in. Consider using thicker socks initially if the fit is borderline.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber soles are clean. If the issue persists on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider a light roughening of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper or consult a cobbler.

Color transfer from black accents

This is uncommon but possible. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wear, especially in humid conditions. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or clothing when new.
