FAQs
Are these Gazelles true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adidas sizing; however, since suede can stretch slightly, ensure a snug fit from the start.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it will damage the suede material and weaken the adhesive.
Are these suitable for running?
No, the Gazelle is a lifestyle trainer and lacks the technical support and motion control required for running.
How do I protect the suede from rain?
Use a specialized suede-safe protective spray to create a water-resistant barrier before you first wear them.
Are the laces replaceable?
Yes, the standard lace-up closure is compatible with any flat or oval replacement laces of the correct length.
Troubleshooting
Visible water or dirt marks on the suede
Allow the shoes to dry completely away from direct heat, then use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt.
Insoles feel compressed over time
Remove and aerate the insoles. If comfort significantly decreases, consider replacing them with aftermarket inserts of the same profile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gazelle trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Suede Protection: Apply a high-quality suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first use.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring you do not over-saturate the material.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading.
- Insole Maintenance: If the OrthoLite insoles become damp, remove them from the shoe to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
