FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and style. While they offer comfort for walking, they do not provide the specific support and cushioning required for high-impact running.

How do I clean the floral pattern?

To clean the floral pattern, gently wipe the area with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the delicate print.

What size should I order?

Please refer to the size chart provided by adidas Originals for accurate sizing. The product is listed in UK adult sizes.

Can the ribbon laces be replaced?

Yes, the ribbon laces can be replaced. You can purchase similar satin or grosgrain ribbons in black or a complementary color to swap them out.

What is the main difference between this and a standard Taekwondo shoe?

These are a fashion-oriented iteration of the Taekwondo silhouette, incorporating a floral pattern, leather accents, and ballet-style ribbon fastenings, making them suitable for casual wear rather than martial arts training.

Is the floral pattern waterproof?

The floral pattern is printed onto the fabric and is not inherently waterproof. Protect the trainers from excessive moisture.

Troubleshooting

Ribbons keep coming undone.

Ensure you tie a secure knot, such as a double knot, after adjusting for comfort. Consider using a small amount of fabric glue on the knot if frequent re-tying is an issue.

Floral pattern appears faded after cleaning.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing. Spot cleaning is recommended over full immersion.

Leather accents show scuffs.

Use a leather conditioner and polish suitable for black leather to minimize the appearance of scuffs. For deep scuffs, professional leather repair may be necessary.

Discomfort during extended wear.

Check ribbon tension for even pressure distribution. Ensure socks worn with the trainers are appropriate for comfort and do not cause friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. These trainers are designed for casual wear and pair well with various casual outfits, including jeans, skirts, and casual dresses.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the leather and floral patterned sections, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Ribbon Care: The ribbons can be gently hand-washed if they become soiled. Allow them to air dry completely.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a brush or damp cloth.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag to protect the delicate patterns and materials.
