FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Continental 80 typically follows standard sizing for adidas footwear; however, if you have wider feet, you may prefer a half-size up.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as the heat and agitation can damage the faux leather and the bond of the sole.
Is the material waterproof?
The faux leather is water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain to prevent moisture ingress.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
They offer standard support suitable for everyday walking, but those with specific orthopedic needs may consider adding an aftermarket insole.
What is the primary material used?
This model is constructed with high-quality faux leather for the upper, balancing durability with a clean, retro look.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the trainers maintain their original silhouette and reduce deep creases.
Scuff marks on the surface
Use a specialized synthetic leather cleaner or a gentle eraser to buff away light surface scuffs without damaging the colour.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Continental 80 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: New faux leather trainers may feel slightly stiff initially. Wear them for short periods during the first week to allow the material to soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe down the exterior red faux leather. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the finish or cause discoloration.
- Drying: Never place your trainers near a direct heat source (like a radiator), as this can cause the synthetic material to crack or warp. Always air dry at room temperature.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the red pigment from fading over time.
