FAQs
What is the primary material of the Adidas Superstar II Anthony Edwards trainers?
The upper is primarily constructed from high-quality genuine leather with a crocodile-embossed pattern.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
These trainers are designed for everyday streetwear and casual wear. While they offer durability, they are not optimized for high-intensity athletic performance.
How should I clean the crocodile-embossed leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For more stubborn dirt, use a cleaner specifically designed for leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What inspired the design of these trainers?
The design is an iteration of the classic Superstar silhouette, inspired by 1980s basketball shoes, with modern updates like the embossed pattern and colorway.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, it is not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a leather protector for added water resistance.
What does 'subdued three stripes' mean?
It means the iconic adidas three stripes branding is present but designed to be less prominent or vibrant compared to other models, fitting the shoe's overall understated aesthetic.
What are the main color components?
The primary colors are Night Indigo and Navy Blue, with Silver metallic branding accents.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather
Natural leather will crease with wear. To minimize severe creasing, use shoe trees when storing and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.
Scuffs on the shell toe
The rubber shell toe is designed for durability. Minor scuffs can often be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For deeper marks, a rubber cleaner may be effective.
Laces becoming worn
Replace worn laces with standard athletic shoelaces of a similar length. You can purchase replacements from most shoe retailers.
Discoloration of metallic branding
Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight or chemicals, which can degrade metallic finishes. Clean gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
