FAQs
What material are the adidas Japan Low Shoes made from?
The upper is made from premium 'Magic Beige' leather, and the sole is made from gum rubber.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. The UK size is indicated in the product details (e.g., UK 7.5).
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These shoes are designed for casual wear and style, not for high-impact sports. The gum sole offers good everyday traction.
How should I care for the leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth for cleaning, use a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness, and apply a neutral or matching color shoe polish to preserve the color.
What does the 'adidas JAPAN' gold foil wordmark signify?
It signifies a specific collection or iteration of the shoe, often highlighting quality craftsmanship and a connection to the Japanese market or design inspiration.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, they are not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather.
What is the origin of this shoe design?
The design is based on a silhouette first conceived in the 1960s, revived for contemporary audiences with a focus on quality craftsmanship.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Leather surface shows minor scuffs or marks.
Gently clean with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a neutral shoe polish. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Gum sole appears dirty or scuffed.
Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective, but use it gently to avoid damaging the rubber.
Discoloration on the leather.
Ensure you are using a leather conditioner and appropriate shoe polish. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading.
