adidas Originals Taekwondo Lace - Black - UK 6

While inspired by Taekwondo footwear and offering a `low-profile design` and `grippy rubber outsole`, these `adidas Originals Taekwondo Lace` shoes are primarily designed as `minimalist and versatile trainers` for casual everyday wear and street style. For professional martial arts training, specialized footwear might be more appropriate.

For routine cleaning, wipe the `soft leather upper` with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or to maintain the leather's condition, use a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically formulated for shoes. Always allow them to air dry.

The `adidas Originals Taekwondo Lace` shoes feature a `low-profile design` and a `flat profile`, prioritizing a minimalist aesthetic and flexible feel. They offer standard comfort but are not specifically designed with advanced arch support for orthopedic needs. For additional support, you may consider adding a thin, minimalist insole.

The term `gummy grip` refers to the `tacky rubber outsole` which provides excellent adhesion and traction on various surfaces, similar to how rubber 'sticks'. This enhances stability and prevents slipping during normal wear.

These `adidas Originals Taekwondo Lace` shoes are listed in `UK 6` and are designed for a `regular fit`. Most users find them true to their standard adidas sizing. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on or consulting a size guide.

The `leather upper` and `rubber outsole` offer some protection, but these shoes are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the leather and maintain the shoes' condition. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

Ensure laces are not overtightened. The soft leather upper will naturally stretch and conform to your foot with wear, so give them time to break in. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct.

While the rubber outsole offers `gummy grip`, excessive dust or moisture can reduce traction. Ensure the soles are clean and dry before wear. Avoid highly polished or wet surfaces where extreme grip is required.

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for footwear. This will restore its natural sheen and prevent drying or cracking.
