FAQs
What makes the adidas Superstar Neighborhood Cement Grey special?
This shoe is a limited edition collaboration between adidas and Japanese streetwear brand Neighborhood, featuring unique branding, graphics, and premium materials that blend both brands' aesthetics.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
While the Superstar silhouette has athletic roots, this specific collaborative model is primarily designed for casual wear and streetwear style, rather than intense athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a dedicated suede brush or a suede eraser to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid using water on suede as it can stain and alter the texture.
What size should I get?
The product is listed in UK sizing. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, it is not recommended to wear these trainers in heavy rain. The suede components are particularly susceptible to water damage and staining.
What is the origin of the Neighborhood brand?
Neighborhood is a Japanese streetwear brand founded in Tokyo's Harajuku district in 1994, known for its distinct blend of motorcycle culture, military influences, and urban style.
What does the 'Cement Grey' refer to?
Cement Grey refers to the primary color of the shoe, describing the shade of the grained leather upper and the monochrome suede accents.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather or suede
This is a natural characteristic of leather and suede. For minor creases, you can try using a shoe tree to help maintain shape. Avoid excessive bending.
Stains on the midsole
Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the rubber midsole. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser may be used carefully.
Color transfer from suede
Protect the shoes with a suede protector spray. If color transfer occurs, try cleaning the affected area with a suede brush. Be cautious when wearing with light-colored socks initially.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on leather, use a slightly damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Suede areas should be cleaned with a dedicated suede brush or eraser. Avoid excessive water.
