FAQs
What materials are used in the Adidas Gazelle Indoor?
The Adidas Gazelle Indoor features a soft suede leather upper, a comfortable leather lining, and a durable gum rubber outsole.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
While the original Gazelle was designed for indoor sports, the modern Gazelle Indoor is best suited for casual wear and street style due to its construction and materials. It is not recommended for high-performance athletic activities.
How should I clean my Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes?
For the suede upper, use a suede brush and a specialized suede cleaner. For the gum rubber sole, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Are the Gazelle Indoor shoes true to size?
Adidas Gazelle Indoor shoes generally fit true to size. It's recommended to consult the official Adidas sizing guide if you are unsure or between sizes.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
The suede material is not water-resistant and can be susceptible to damage or staining when exposed to prolonged moisture. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. A suede protector spray can offer some limited protection, but always test it first.
What is the gum rubber outsole for?
The gum rubber outsole provides a classic aesthetic, excellent grip, and durability, drawing from its heritage as an indoor sports shoe. It contributes to both the shoe's iconic look and practical traction.
Troubleshooting
Suede upper appears dirty or stained.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For set-in stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions, testing on a small, hidden area first.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods daily to allow the suede and leather materials to break in and conform to the shape of your feet. This will improve comfort over time.
Outsole feels slippery.
Clean the gum rubber outsole regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might reduce traction. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing.
Color fading on suede.
Suede can naturally fade over time, especially with prolonged exposure to sunlight. Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. A suede revitalizer spray might help restore some color, but use sparingly and test first.

Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Gazelle Indoor shoes:
- Suede Upper: Regularly use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove dust and loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Leather Lining: Wipe the interior with a slightly damp cloth if needed, and allow to air dry completely.
- Gum Rubber Outsole: Clean the outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and maintain traction. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
- Water Protection: Suede is not water-resistant. If you anticipate wearing them in damp conditions, consider applying a suede protector spray (always test first).
