Full details
The adidas Originals Gazelle Indoor trainers are designed for infants who need a blend of iconic style and practical support. These trainers provide a secure, comfortable fit for growing feet, featuring signature branding and a durable construction suitable for everyday activities. While the premium suede upper offers a soft, classic aesthetic, it requires more careful maintenance compared to synthetic or leather options to keep the black finish looking pristine.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede upper and compromise the adhesive. Clean manually with appropriate tools.
Can these shoes be worn in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede can absorb water and become discolored or stiff if soaked.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for growth.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from premium suede.
Are the laces functional?
The laces are elastic and are paired with a hook-and-loop strap to provide a secure fit without needing to tie them.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
They feature light underfoot cushioning designed for comfort, though they are not intended as orthopedic footwear.
Troubleshooting
Hook-and-loop strap losing stickiness
Remove lint, hair, or debris from the hooks using a small brush or pair of tweezers.
Suede looks dull or dusty
Use a dry suede brush to gently buff the nap of the material in one direction.
Scuff marks on the gum sole
Use a damp cloth with mild soapy water to gently wipe the rubber edge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers arrive ready to wear right out of the box. To maintain the look of the suede upper, avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt or debris after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which could warp the material or the rubber sole. Store them in a cool, dry place to ensure the suede remains soft and the structural integrity is maintained for the life of the shoe.
