FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas Italia 60s are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not engineered with the specific cushioning and support needed for serious running or athletic performance.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by adidas for accurate measurements. These trainers generally run true to size, but individual fit can vary. Consider trying them on if possible.

What is the material of the 3-Stripes?

The iconic 3-Stripes on the sidewalls are typically made of synthetic material or leather, matching the shoe's primary color scheme, in this case, 'Night Indigo'.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended as it can damage the leather and suede components. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet.

What is the origin of the Italia 60s model?

The adidas Italia 60s model is a revival of an athletic shoe originally made in Rome in 1959, reflecting the elegance of Italian shoemaking from that era.

How should I clean the gum outsole?

Wipe the gum outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush or a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Does this model come in other colors?

The adidas Italia 60s model is available in various colorways. This specific guide focuses on the Yellow / Night Indigo / Cream White variant (MPN: IH9060), but other color options may exist.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize appearance, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces.

Suede losing its texture

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore its nap. Avoid getting suede wet.

Discoloration of gum sole

Gum soles can naturally yellow over time. Clean with a damp cloth; harsh chemicals may damage the material.
