FAQs

Are the adidas Yung-1 trainers suitable for running?

While the midsole offers support, the Yung-1 are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with a retro aesthetic. They are best suited for casual wear and walking, not for high-impact or performance running.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by adidas. These trainers generally follow standard UK sizing. Consider the potential break-in period and if you prefer a snug or roomier fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash the adidas Yung-1 trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesive, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What does 'Hi Res Yellow' refer to in the colourway?

'Hi Res Yellow' refers to a vibrant, high-contrast shade of yellow used as an accent colour within the 'Black' base of the trainers, adding a distinctive pop to the design.

How durable are the mixed materials?

The mix of materials is chosen for both aesthetic appeal and durability. Common combinations include leather, suede, mesh, and synthetics, all designed to withstand regular casual wear.

What is the main benefit of the chunky silhouette?

The chunky silhouette is a defining feature of the 90s retro aesthetic, providing a bold visual statement. It also contributes to the supportive and stable feel of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort or stiffness

Wear the trainers for progressively longer periods. The materials will soften and mold to your foot shape over time, improving comfort. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or where the squeaking originates. Ensure laces are tied correctly and not too tight.

Dirt and stains on the upper

Gently clean with a soft brush or cloth and a mild soap and water solution. For suede or nubuck parts, use a specialized cleaner and brush. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Upon receiving, ensure they fit correctly. It is recommended to wear them for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape.

Compatibility: The adidas Yung-1 trainers are designed for adult male wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and track pants. They are suitable for everyday wear and light athletic activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution with cool water and a clean cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
