FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities or sports?

While originally designed for indoor sports in the 70s, the Adidas Gazelle Indoor trainers have evolved into a casual streetwear icon. They are best suited for everyday wear and fashion purposes, not high-performance athletic activities or intense sports.

How do I clean the suede upper?

For basic cleaning, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Specialized suede cleaning solutions are recommended for deeper cleaning. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

Do the Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes run true to size?

These shoes feature a regular fit and generally run true to size. If you're unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size chart, especially if you're between sizes.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

It is generally advised to avoid wearing suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the material. Using a water and stain repellent spray designed for suede can offer some protection against light moisture.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made from durable gum rubber, which provides reliable traction and contributes to the shoe's distinctive retro look.

What makes the Gazelle Indoor different from other Gazelle models?

The Gazelle Indoor typically features a translucent gum rubber outsole that wraps around the shoe, a leather and synthetic lining for comfort, and often unique material combinations like premium suede, distinguishing it with its specific 70s indoor sports heritage and detailed construction.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a specialized suede eraser or a suede cleaning solution following the product instructions carefully. Always brush in one direction.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable initially.

These shoes have a regular fit. Allow for a short break-in period, as the leather lining and suede upper will soften and conform to your foot over time. Ensure you've selected the correct size.

Gum sole losing its shine or looking scuffed.

Clean the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For scuffs, a rubber eraser can sometimes help. Regular cleaning helps maintain its appearance and grip.

Care:

Maintaining the premium suede upper is key to prolonging the life and look of your Gazelle Indoor shoes.

  1. Regular Cleaning: Gently brush off dry dirt and dust with a soft suede brush (nylon or brass bristles). Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
  2. Stain Removal: For minor stains, use a specialized suede eraser. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain.
  3. Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a suede cleaning solution specifically designed for suede and nubuck materials. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
  4. Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray formulated for suede before initial wear and reapply periodically. This helps protect against moisture and spills.
  5. Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help retain their shape.
