FAQs
What material are the Y-3 Superstar trainers made from?
These trainers are crafted from quality materials, predominantly leather, which contributes to their durability and premium feel.
How do I find the right size?
The product is listed in UK adult sizes. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible, as fits can vary.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
While comfortable for everyday wear and walking, the Y-3 Superstar trainers are primarily fashion footwear and are not designed for specialized athletic performance like running or high-impact sports.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, depending on wear and exposure to dirt. A light wipe down after each significant wear is a good practice. Deep cleaning or conditioning should be done periodically, perhaps every few months or when the material appears dry.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, the Y-3 Superstar trainers should never be put in a washing machine. Machine washing can severely damage the leather, construction, and shape of the shoe.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer. Please check the product listing or contact the place of purchase for specific warranty details.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
While this guide focuses on the black colourway, other colour options may be available depending on the season and retailer. Please check available listings for variations.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or in the tongue area. Ensure laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose.
Leather creasing excessively
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize this, ensure you are using shoe trees when not wearing them and avoid over-tightening laces. If creasing is severe, a leather conditioner may help maintain flexibility.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace the laces with a new pair of a similar length and material. Consider wax-coated laces for increased durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear upon purchase.
Compatibility: The Y-3 Superstar trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They are designed for adult unisex wear.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Y-3 Superstar trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a clean damp cloth.
- Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape. Consider using shoe trees to help preserve the form of the shoe.
- Leather Conditioning: Periodically, especially in dry climates or after cleaning, apply a small amount of leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
