FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They do not offer the specific support or cushioning required for serious running.

How do I clean the white 3-Stripes and heel tab?

Wipe these areas gently with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, a non-abrasive cleaner might be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in heavy rain as the material can be easily damaged by excessive moisture. A suede protector spray can offer some water resistance for light moisture.

What is the difference between the Paris and Rekord series mentioned?

The product description notes inspiration from the 'City Series' which included models like the Paris, and the Rekord series itself. Both share a retro aesthetic, but specific design nuances and material compositions can vary between individual models within these series.

What size do these trainers come in?

These trainers are available in various adult UK sizes. The specific product listing focuses on UK 6.5, but other sizes are available through different variants.

Is the fit true to size?

Generally, adidas trainers fit true to size. However, it's always recommended to check customer reviews or consult a sizing chart if unsure, as individual fit preferences can vary.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to dry naturally and brush again.

Shoes feel slightly tight.

Wear them around the house with thicker socks to gently stretch the material. Avoid exposing suede to excessive moisture to prevent damage during stretching.

Soles are losing grip.

Clean the rubber soles thoroughly with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting traction.

Color fading.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Consider using a suede protector spray with UV inhibitors, but test on a hidden spot first.
