FAQs

What is the recommended age group for these shoes?

These adidas Originals Gazelle PS trainers are designed for younger kids, specifically in preschool or early primary school ages.

Are these suitable for sports or running?

While durable and comfortable for active children, these Gazelle PS trainers are primarily designed for everyday casual wear and style, not for specialized sports performance or intense running.

What materials are the shoes made from?

The main upper material is premium leather. The classic 3-Stripes are made of suede, and the lining is synthetic. The outsole is a durable gum rubber cupsole.

How do I clean the pink leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.

Are these trainers true to size?

Adidas Gazelle typically run true to size. However, for children's shoes, it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and consult the adidas sizing chart to ensure the best fit, especially given their rapid growth.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some resistance, these shoes are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water to protect the leather and suede. A protective spray can offer additional, but not complete, resistance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure the correct size was selected (UK 12). Check that socks are not too thick or thin. Adjust the lace closure: loosen if too tight, tighten if too loose. Consider professional fitting if issues persist.

Leather or suede appears dull or dirty.

Clean regularly as per the 'Care' instructions. For leather, use a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner if needed, followed by a leather conditioner. For suede, use a suede brush and eraser to restore nap and remove scuffs.

Sole grip seems reduced.

Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the sole with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or mud that might be impacting grip. While durable, constant abrasive surfaces can wear down the tread over time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless Style: Classic 70s design makes them a versatile fashion choice for kids.
  • Comfortable Fit: OrthoLite sockliner and premium materials ensure comfort for extended wear.
  • Durable Construction: Quality leather upper and robust rubber cupsole are built to withstand active play.
  • Secure Lacing: Lace closure provides a customizable and secure fit.
  • Unisex Design: Suitable for all younger kids, offering broad appeal.

Cons

  • Leather Care Required: The premium leather upper necessitates specific cleaning and care to maintain its condition.
  • Not Performance Footwear: Primarily designed for casual wear and style, not specialized sports activities.
  • Sizing Considerations: As with any children's footwear, regular size checks are needed due to rapid growth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets. For a comfortable fit, have your child wear socks they'd normally use with the shoes.
  2. Adjust Fit: Loosen laces, slide foot in, then tighten laces firmly but not too tightly. Double-knot for security if preferred.
  3. Initial Wear: Encourage your child to walk around indoors for a short period to confirm the fit and comfort.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: Designed for younger kids (PS indicates Preschool).
  • Gender: Unisex design, suitable for all children.
  • Outfit Matching: The classic pink color and silhouette make them versatile for pairing with casual wear, jeans, shorts, and dresses.

Care

Maintaining the premium leather and suede elements will prolong the life and appearance of these trainers:

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a leather and suede protector spray before first wear to guard against water and stains (follow product instructions).
  2. Regular Cleaning: For the leather upper, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For suede areas (like the 3-Stripes), use a soft brush designed for suede to remove loose dirt.
  3. Stain Removal: For tougher stains on leather, use a specialized leather cleaner. For suede, a suede eraser can be effective. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and color fading. Keep them upright to maintain their shape.
