No, the adidas Originals Japan shoes are designed as lifestyle and casual footwear, reissuing a classic 1964 silhouette. They are not intended for athletic performance, running, or high-impact sports.
To clean the leather upper, use a soft cloth dampened with water and a small amount of mild leather cleaner. Gently wipe the surface. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh chemicals. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
The 'aged midsole' refers to a design feature where the midsole is intentionally treated to appear slightly discolored or 'aged' from its original pristine white. This detail is part of the shoe's vintage charm, replicating the look of older, well-preserved sneakers.
adidas Originals typically fit true to size for most users. However, foot shapes vary. We recommend trying them on or consulting the official adidas size guide for UK shoe sizes if you are unsure about your exact fit.
While the leather upper offers some protection, these shoes are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the leather and maintain the shoe's condition. If they get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally.
The upper is made from premium 'Collegiate Purple' leather, offering a distinctive look and feel. The sole is made from a durable synthetic material designed for casual wear.
Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals. For best results, use a leather conditioner periodically to restore its luster.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for your foot. Refer to adidas sizing charts for conversions if needed. Lacing can also be adjusted for a more secure or relaxed fit. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or down.
Squeaking can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath it. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the sole rubbing on the ground in certain conditions or a manufacturing issue.
The synthetic sole is designed for casual daily use. Avoid using these shoes for high-impact sports, running, or on abrasive surfaces to maximize their lifespan. Regular rotation with other footwear can also extend durability.
Protect your shoes from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause color fading. Store them in a cool, dark place. For minor fading, a specialized leather dye or conditioner designed for colored leather might help, but consult a professional shoe care expert first.
Your adidas Originals Japan shoes require no complex setup. Simply lace them up to your desired tightness, and they are ready to wear.
These shoes are highly compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair particularly well with:
Proper care will ensure your adidas Originals Japan shoes maintain their look and last longer.
