Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a damp cloth, followed by air drying.

Laces are difficult to secure

Ensure laces are threaded correctly through eyelets and pull evenly when tightening. Replace laces if they are frayed or damaged.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to mold to your feet. Thicker socks can also help stretch them slightly.

Rubber sole looks scuffed

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For minor scuffs, a magic eraser might be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Y-3 Gazelle Trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they are laced appropriately for a comfortable and secure fit.

Care:

  • Suede Upper: Use a suede brush to clean away dry dirt and dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, being careful not to oversaturate the material. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • Lining: The leather lining can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth if necessary. Ensure it dries completely.
  • Rubber Outsole: Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
