FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?
While you can wear them casually outdoors, the adidas Gazelle Indoor is primarily designed with a gum sole optimized for superior grip on indoor court surfaces. Regular outdoor use, especially on rough terrain, might wear down the sole faster and reduce performance.
How do I choose the correct size?
The UK 5 size refers to a standard adult men's UK shoe size. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. If you've worn adidas Gazelle shoes before, you can generally stick to your usual size for a consistent fit.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper typically features durable materials, common to the Gazelle line, to maintain its shape and provide support. For this specific 'Crew Yellow Gum' variant, assume a material that benefits from gentle cleaning to preserve its vibrant color.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and compromise the shoe's structure and color. Always clean by hand using a damp cloth and mild sneaker cleaner for best results.
What kind of activities are these best for?
These shoes are ideal for indoor sports like futsal, handball, volleyball, or gym workouts where excellent grip on smooth indoor surfaces is crucial. Their iconic style also makes them perfect for casual, everyday wear.
Will the yellow color fade over time?
Like any colored footwear, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning chemicals can potentially lead to color fading. Following recommended care instructions will help maintain the vibrant yellow hue for longer.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on indoor court surfaces
Ensure the gum sole is clean and free of dust or debris. A slightly damp cloth can help restore grip. If the sole is visibly worn smooth, its traction capabilities may be diminished.
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. The UK 5 is a standard adult fit. Try adjusting the lacing pattern for a more comfortable fit, or wear them for short periods to break them in, as materials can soften with use.
Color fading or staining on the yellow upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. For stains, gently spot clean with a mild sneaker cleaner and a soft brush. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first to prevent damage.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with gum soles on certain indoor surfaces, especially when new or very clean. It often subsides with regular use. A light application of baby powder to the sole's surface can sometimes temporarily reduce the sound.

Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the shoe's material and color integrity.
