FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

No, the adidas Training Spezial trainers are optimized for gym training and short bursts of activity. They lack the specialized cushioning and support required for long-distance running.

How do I clean the Cordura nylon upper?

Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or harsh cleaning agents, as they can degrade the material.

What does 'REPETITOR foam' do?

REPETITOR foam is a dual-density material used in the midsole. It provides a firmer feel in the heel, enhancing stability for lifting and preventing excessive compression.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The Traxion outsole provides good grip, but the materials are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry indoor environments. Prolonged exposure to water may affect their performance and lifespan.

What is the main advantage of the Traxion outsole?

The Traxion outsole is designed to provide grip in all directions, which is beneficial for quick changes of direction, lateral movements, and sprints during training.

Do these trainers come in other colors besides Black/White?

Color availability may vary. Please check the product listings for different color options that might be offered.

Is the wide fit suitable for everyone?

The wide fit is designed to offer more room for broader feet. If you have narrow feet, you might find them too loose even with tightened laces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too wide

Tighten the laces thoroughly, ensuring they are snug around the midfoot. If the width remains an issue, consider adding thicker socks or an aftermarket insole for a more snug fit.

Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces

Ensure the Traxion outsole is clean and free from debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth. If the shoes are heavily worn, the tread may be diminished, and replacement might be necessary.

Upper material feels stiff

The Cordura nylon and leather upper is designed for durability and may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they become more flexible.

Discomfort during prolonged standing

While designed for training, prolonged standing might benefit from additional cushioning. Consider using specialized insoles designed for comfort and support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent stability for weight training exercises.
  • Durable and flexible upper material suitable for intense workouts.
  • Superior grip on various surfaces due to the Traxion outsole.
  • Accommodating wide fit for increased comfort.
  • Versatile design for gym and casual use.

Cons

  • May feel too wide for individuals with narrow feet.
  • Styling might be perceived as primarily functional rather than fashion-forward by some.
  • Lace closure requires manual adjustment for optimal fit.
  • Primarily designed for training; may not offer specialized cushioning for long-distance running.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure they are the correct size and lace them to your preferred tightness for a secure fit before use.

Compatibility: The adidas Training Spezial trainers are designed for a wide range of training activities, including weightlifting, cross-training, and gym workouts. They are compatible with most indoor gym surfaces. While they offer good grip, they are not specialized for outdoor running or specific sports requiring unique cleat patterns.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Insoles: If removable, take out the insoles to dry separately and to air out the interior of the shoe.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
