FAQs

What is the recommended age for these kids' trainers?

These trainers are part of the kids' collection, suitable for various ages depending on foot size. This specific pair is a UK Size 4, which typically fits younger school-aged children. Always measure your child's foot for the best fit.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

Due to the suede upper, these trainers are not ideal for wet or rainy conditions. Water can stain or damage suede. If exposure to moisture is unavoidable, consider applying a water-resistant suede protector.

How do I clean the white rubber sole?

For the rubber outsole, use a damp cloth and mild soap, or a dedicated shoe cleaner. A soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can help clean grooves. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the rubber or adjacent suede.

What does 'OrthoLite insole' mean?

OrthoLite insoles are lightweight, breathable foam insoles that provide long-lasting cushioning, moisture management, and anti-microbial properties to keep feet comfortable and healthy.

Are these Gazelle trainers true to size?

adidas Gazelle trainers generally run true to size. However, foot shapes can vary. It's always best to measure your child's foot and refer to the adidas size chart for the most accurate fit. Allow a small amount of wiggle room for growth.

Can these trainers be put in a washing machine?

No, it is strongly advised not to put suede trainers, or most trainers, in a washing machine. The harsh agitation and detergents can damage the suede, glue, and overall construction of the shoe. Follow the care instructions for suede cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, gently use a suede eraser or a damp cloth with suede cleaner following product instructions.

Laces frequently come untied.

Teach your child to double-knot their laces. Alternatively, consider replacing standard laces with slightly thicker, more textured laces that hold knots better.

Shoes feel too tight or loose after wearing for a while.

Re-tie the laces, adjusting the tension across the foot. If the size is consistently uncomfortable, double-check your child's current foot measurements against adidas's size guide, as children's feet grow quickly.

Squeaking noise when walking.

Often, this is due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or baking soda under the OrthoLite insole to reduce friction.

Strong odor developing inside the shoes.

Ensure trainers are aired out after each wear. Remove the OrthoLite insoles periodically to air them separately. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless Style: The Gazelle's iconic design remains popular and stylish.
  • Comfortable Fit: OrthoLite insole provides cushioning for extended wear.
  • Quality Materials: Suede upper and rubber outsole offer durability.
  • Secure Lacing: Allows for a custom, snug fit.

Cons

  • Suede Maintenance: Requires specific cleaning and care to prevent damage or stains.
  • Lace-Up Design: May be less convenient for very young children compared to hook-and-loop fasteners.
  • Limited Weather Protection: Suede is not ideal for wet or muddy conditions without treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Simply unlace, insert foot, and tie the laces to a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the laces are double-knotted for active kids to prevent tripping.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: Kids.
  • Size: UK Size 4. Ensure correct sizing for comfort and foot health; always measure feet if unsure.
  • Gender: Male (though Gazelle designs are often unisex in appeal).
  • Activities: Best suited for casual wear, school, and light recreational activities. Not designed for high-performance sports.

Care

Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede Gazelle trainers:

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to help repel water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning:
  • Use a suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. Brush in one direction.
  • For scuffs or marks, use a suede eraser (or a clean pencil eraser) on the affected area.
  • For deeper stains, use a suede cleaner solution specifically designed for suede, following product instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  1. Drying: If wet, stuff the trainers with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not put them in a dryer.
  2. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
