FAQs

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No, the suede upper is absorbent. It is recommended to use a suede-specific water repellent spray if you intend to wear them in damp conditions.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, the adidas Tobacco fits true to standard UK sizes. If you prefer a looser fit or thick socks, consider sizing up by a half size.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the integrity of the adhesive on the sole.

Is there arch support in the Tobacco line?

The Tobacco features a flat, low-profile sole typical of 1970s court shoes; users needing high arch support may wish to add aftermarket insoles.

How do I remove minor stains from the suede?

Use a suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth, blotting gently rather than rubbing.

Are these suitable for sports?

While durable, these are lifestyle trainers and lack the modern technical cushioning and stability needed for intense sports or running.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dusty or dull

Gently brush the surface with a suede-specific brush to lift the nap and remove trapped dirt.

Laces constantly coming untied

Replace standard laces with textured cotton laces for better grip or use a double-knot method.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the lacing tension at the top eyelets to better secure the heel against the padded collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your suede adidas Tobacco trainers last, avoid exposing them to excessive moisture or mud, as suede is absorbent and difficult to clean once stained. For routine maintenance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust and dirt. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather or suede from cracking or losing its shape. When wearing, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preference to keep your heel secure in the padded collar, which helps prevent unwanted slipping and friction.
