FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the CLOUDFOAM cushioning offers comfort, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light training. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the product sizing chart provided by adidas or the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Since these are men's UK sizes, ensure you are using the correct conversion if needed.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the leather and synthetic upper. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the main benefit of CLOUDFOAM cushioning?
CLOUDFOAM cushioning is designed to provide a soft feel and step-in comfort, absorbing impact and offering a responsive feel for everyday activities.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
What does 'cold cement construction' mean?
Cold cement construction is a manufacturing method where the sole is adhered to the upper using strong adhesives at cooler temperatures. This typically results in a lighter and more flexible shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. The materials used offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for use in wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Uncomfortable fit or pressure points
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to distribute pressure evenly. Try wearing them with the appropriate type of socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe's structure is not suitable for your foot shape.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance may be reduced on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the outsole is clean, as debris can reduce grip.
Leather upper creasing excessively
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid bending the shoe sharply. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape. Clean and condition the leather periodically.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the leather and synthetic upper, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a brush and mild soap and water to remove dirt.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: Remove laces for cleaning and wash separately by hand or in a laundry bag.
