FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
The Yeezy 500 High often fits slightly snug. Many users find it comfortable to go up a half-size if they prefer a bit of extra room in the toe box.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. The suede components are sensitive to moisture and can become damaged or discolored if exposed to heavy rain.
What is Adiprene cushioning?
Adiprene is a proprietary Adidas foam material designed to absorb shock and provide cushioning, specifically in the heel area to enhance comfort.
How do I clean the white or light-colored midsole?
You can clean the rubber midsole using a damp cloth with mild soap, wiping gently to avoid scrubbing the suede or leather upper.
Are these suitable for athletic running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for fashion and casual daily use, not for high-intensity athletic running or sports performance.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the foot into the shoe
Loosen the rope laces entirely from the top to the bottom eyelets to expand the throat of the shoe before entry.
Surface stains on the suede panels
Use a suede-specific eraser or a professional cleaning kit; avoid using standard soaps or detergents as they will cause water-spotting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Yeezy 500 Highs remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: The Yeezy 500 series generally features a snug fit due to the internal padding; if you prefer more room, consider wearing thinner socks initially as the materials break in.
- Cleaning: Given the mixture of suede and leather, do not submerge the shoes in water. Use a dry soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from suede areas and a damp cloth for leather sections. Always use a dedicated suede cleaner to avoid staining.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colors and dry out the leather over time. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the high-top collar.
