FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports activities?
No, the Adidas Originals Gazelle Bold Trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion purposes. Their platform sole and suede upper are not intended for athletic performance or high-impact activities.
How do I protect the suede from water and stains?
It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede and nubuck protector spray before the first wear. Reapply this protector periodically as per the product's instructions to maintain its effectiveness against water and stains.
Can I machine wash my Gazelle Bold trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede trainers. The process can damage the suede material, alter its texture, and compromise the adhesives and construction of the shoe. Always follow specific suede cleaning methods.
What is the fit like for these trainers?
These trainers feature a 'regular fit.' Most users find them true to size. If you are typically between sizes, consider trying them on or consulting a size chart if available, as personal preference for fit can vary.
Do the platform soles make the trainers heavy?
While the stacked platform sole adds some material compared to a standard trainer, the Gazelle Bold is designed for comfortable everyday wear. The added weight is generally not significant enough to cause discomfort during casual use.
How should I store my trainers to maintain their shape?
To help maintain the shape, especially of the toe box, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees when not in use is an excellent way to preserve their form.
Are the vibrant colours prone to fading?
The vibrant colourblock hues are an integral part of the design and are applied with durable dyes. With proper care, including avoiding prolonged direct sunlight and harsh cleaning chemicals, the colours should maintain their vibrancy over time.
Troubleshooting
Suede material looks dull or has surface dirt.
Use a dry suede brush to gently brush away surface dirt and revive the nap of the suede. Brush consistently in one direction.
There are scuff marks on the rubber platform sole.
For light scuffs, gently wipe the rubber outsole with a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For more persistent marks, a 'magic eraser' type sponge can be effective, used with light pressure.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The platform sole may require a short breaking-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot. Ensure your laces are tied comfortably, not too tight.

Care:
Proper care is crucial to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede trainers:

- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Apply according to the cleaner's instructions, using a clean cloth. Avoid harsh rubbing.
- Water Exposure: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do NOT machine wash or tumble dry. Do NOT use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
