FAQs
How do I clean the leather upper of my Gazelle Bold trainers?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific cleaner. Always air dry away from direct heat.
Are these trainers suitable for playing sports like basketball or running?
These trainers are designed for general active wear and style. While durable, they are not specialized performance footwear for high-impact sports like basketball or long-distance running. They are best for light sports, play, and everyday wear.
What is the fit like for these trainers?
The adidas Originals Gazelle Bold trainers feature a regular cut with lace closure, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit. They generally fit true to size for children's footwear.
Does the platform sole affect stability?
The platform sole is designed for stability and comfort. While it provides an elevated feel, it's engineered to be supportive for everyday activities. Children typically adapt quickly to the slight height increase.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The leather upper can be sensitive to excessive moisture. While they can handle light splashes, it's best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to protect the material. Consider using a waterproof spray for added protection.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are part of the 'kids' or 'older kids' collection, designed for children within the specified UK Childrens size range.
Troubleshooting
Laces frequently come untied.
Ensure laces are tied with a double knot. Teach proper lacing techniques, as loose laces can be a tripping hazard.
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system. If still uncomfortable, verify the size. Children's feet grow quickly, and an ill-fitting shoe can cause discomfort. Consider trying them on with the type of socks typically worn.
Scuffs or minor marks on the leather upper.
For light scuffs, gently rub with a soft, clean cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair cream, following the product's instructions. A shoe polish matching the color may also help.
Gum rubber sole appears dirty or discolored.
Clean the rubber sole with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn dirt, a magic eraser can be effective. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Gazelle Bold trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: If wet, allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially if they will be worn frequently outdoors.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. You may use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
