FAQs
What makes these Gazelles a reissue?
These are a faithful reissue of the original 1991 Gazelle model, aiming to replicate the design and materials of that iconic era.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
While they have a sporty look and a durable rubber outsole for traction, they are primarily designed for everyday wear and casual activities rather than intense athletic training.
How do I check if the size is right?
It's best to try them on, ideally at the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
What is an OrthoLite® insole?
OrthoLite® insoles are designed to provide superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties for enhanced comfort during wear.
Can I wash these trainers in a machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and shape of the trainers. Spot clean with a damp cloth instead.
What are the main materials used in these trainers?
The upper is made from a combination of leather and synthetic materials, while the outsole is rubber. The lining is typically a soft jersey material.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The Gazelle series is available in a wide range of colors. This specific product variant is blue, but other color options may exist within the broader adidas Originals Gazelle collection.
Troubleshooting
Sizing seems incorrect
Sizes can vary between brands and even models. Always refer to the size guide and try the footwear on before returning. Note that box or label sizes might display US/Euro equivalents.
Material scuffs easily
For leather and synthetic uppers, use a damp cloth for gentle cleaning. Consider using a protective spray designed for leather and synthetic materials to help repel dirt and minor scuffs.
Shoelaces come undone frequently
Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. If the lace material is very smooth, consider replacing them with laces that offer more grip.
