FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas Originals Italia 70s are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. They are not engineered for the specific demands of running or high-impact sports.

How do I clean the nubuck material?

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner is recommended. Avoid using water excessively, as it can alter the texture and appearance of nubuck.

What does 'Italia 70s' refer to?

This naming refers to the revival of a vintage training shoe style from the 1970s, reflecting the era's athletic design heritage.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather upper offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage to the materials, especially the nubuck.

What is the main benefit of the EVA cushioning?

The EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) cushioning provides lightweight comfort and helps absorb shock during wear, making them suitable for extended periods of casual use.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This specific product guide focuses on the Grey/Black colorway. Other color options may be available under different product listings.

What is the purpose of the rubber toe bumpers?

The rubber toe bumpers are a durable addition that helps protect the front of the trainers from scuffs and wear, contributing to their longevity.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust lacing to find a comfortable fit. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size. Refer to the size chart for accurate measurements.

Nubuck material looks dull or dirty

Use a nubuck brush to restore the texture. For stains, consult a specialized nubuck cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Soles feel slippery

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with standard adult foot sizes. To care for your adidas Originals Italia 70s trainers, we recommend the following:

  • Cleaning the Nubuck: Use a soft brush to gently remove dirt and dust from the nubuck surface. For tougher stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used sparingly, following product instructions. Avoid excessive water.
  • Cleaning the Soles: Wipe the rubber soles with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used if necessary, but ensure it is thoroughly rinsed or wiped clean.
  • Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
