FAQs

Are the Powerphase shoes suitable for running?

The Powerphase shoes are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They do not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for running or rigorous athletic training.

What material are the adidas Originals Powerphase shoes made from?

The upper of the adidas Originals Powerphase shoes is primarily made from leather, providing a premium feel and durability.

How should I clean the black leather upper?

Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather, followed by a gentle buff with a clean cloth.

Do these shoes come in other colors besides black?

While this guide focuses on the black variant, the Powerphase series has been released in various colorways. Please check available product listings for other options.

What is the intended fit of these shoes?

The Powerphase shoes are intended for a standard adult fit. It is recommended to try them on or consult a size guide to ensure the best fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather can offer some resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protector spray can add a layer of water resistance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thin socks initially and gradually increase sock thickness. Consider using shoe stretchers if the tightness persists in specific areas.

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize premature creasing. Store them with shoe trees to help maintain shape.

Sole becoming detached

If the sole shows signs of detachment, consult a cobbler for professional repair. Avoid attempting to fix it with adhesives not designed for footwear.

Discoloration from dirt

Clean immediately with appropriate leather cleaners. For stubborn marks, seek professional shoe cleaning services.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  2. Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to specific variants): Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid water.
  3. Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth or a soft brush and soapy water. Ensure it is completely dry before wearing.
  4. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight if they become wet. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  5. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for lighter colourways. Ensure the spray is suitable for the specific material.
