FAQs
What makes CORDURA® fabric special?
CORDURA® fabric is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to tears, scuffs, abrasions, and water, making it ideal for high-wear applications.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
While originally designed for indoor football, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities due to their heritage streetwear focus. They offer good grip and comfort for walking but may not provide the specialized support for intense athletic performance.
How do I clean the trainers?
Clean the trainers by wiping them with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners to protect the material.
What is the main advantage of the Gazelle CORDURA model?
The primary advantage is the enhanced durability and resistance provided by the CORDURA® fabric, combined with the iconic and timeless style of the adidas Gazelle.
What materials are these trainers made from?
The trainers are primarily made from Textile (CORDURA® fabric), Leather, and Rubber.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
Yes, the CORDURA® fabric offers water resistance, making them suitable for light rain. However, they are not fully waterproof for prolonged immersion.
What does 'low-top design' mean?
A low-top design means the shoe's cut sits below the ankle bone, offering freedom of movement and a classic aesthetic. This contrasts with high-top shoes that extend above the ankle.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely. Consider using a double knot or replacing laces with ones that offer better grip.
Discoloration or scuffs on CORDURA® fabric
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
