FAQs
Is the adidas Karintha true to size?
Yes, this model generally fits consistent with standard adidas sizing, though the slim profile may feel snug for those with wider feet.
Can these sneakers be machine washed?
No, machine washing will permanently damage the suede upper and the structure of the shoe.
Are these suitable for gym use?
These are designed for lifestyle and casual wear; they do not possess the technical support features required for high-intensity training or running.
How do I maintain the color vibrancy?
Keep the shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use to prevent color fading, and store them in a cool, dry place.
What should I do if I get oil on the suede?
Apply a small amount of cornstarch or baby powder to the stain to absorb the oil, let it sit for a few hours, and then brush it off gently.
Troubleshooting
Surface scuffs on the suede
Use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff the affected area in a back-and-forth motion.
Water spots after light rain
Allow the shoe to dry completely, then use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sneakers remain in optimal condition, treat them with a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear. Compatibility with outfits is broad; the brown and black color scheme pairs exceptionally well with denim, chinos, and tailored trousers. To clean, use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can ruin the suede texture and cause color bleeding. If they become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink.
