FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of the adidas Originals Karintha Lo sneaker is crafted from a smooth, high-quality suede for a luxurious look and feel.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities?

No, while inspired by athletic heritage, these sneakers are designed for casual wear and fashion purposes, not for high-performance sports like running or intense training.

How do I protect my suede sneakers from water and stains?

It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions.

What does 'debossed branding' mean?

'Debossed branding' refers to a design or logo that is pressed into the material, creating an indented effect. It provides a subtle, refined, and tactile branding element.

Do these sneakers run true to size?

Generally, adidas Originals sneakers are true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK adult shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing specific sizing charts or customer reviews for more guidance.

Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for suede sneakers. Water and harsh detergents can damage the suede material and affect the shoe's structure. Always follow the specific care instructions for suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction. For stubborn dirt, use a suede eraser before brushing.

Water stains on the suede.

Immediately blot excess water with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. Let the shoes air dry completely away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For set-in stains, a specialized suede cleaner may be needed.

Sneakers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Suede shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.

Care Instructions

Suede requires diligent care to maintain its appearance. Follow these steps for optimal longevity:

Pre-Treatment: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dust and loose dirt. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
Spot Cleaning: For minor spots, use a suede eraser to gently rub away marks. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Drying: If your sneakers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect them from dust and light.
Avoid Water: Suede is particularly vulnerable to water. Try to avoid wearing these sneakers in rain, snow, or excessively damp conditions.
