FAQs

What materials are used in the adidas Superstar CLOT?

What does the 'Year of the Snake' theme entail?

Troubleshooting
Silk upper appears creased or damaged
Handle with care. Avoid sharp objects and excessive pressure. For minor creases, lightly steaming from a distance might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first. Professional cleaning may be required for significant damage.
Gold metallic accents are dull or scratched
Gently polish the gold accents with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could further scratch the finish.
Sizing feels off
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider that silk might have slightly different properties than traditional leather uppers. If purchased online, check the return policy for exchanges.
