FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Top Ten RB shoes are designed primarily for casual, everyday wear and lifestyle purposes. They do not offer the specialized support and performance features required for playing basketball professionally.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of premium leather and suede.

How much recycled content is in these shoes?

At least 25% of the components used to make the upper are made with a minimum of 50% recycled content.

How should I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a specialized suede brush for regular cleaning. For stains, a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner can be used, followed by brushing to restore the nap. Avoid water and harsh chemicals.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Sizing can vary between individuals. It is recommended to consult the adidas sizing chart and consider reviews for feedback on fit. Trying them on if possible is the best way to ensure a proper fit.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the point of purchase. Please refer to your receipt or the retailer's website for details on the warranty applicable to your purchase.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The shoes are not waterproof. While the leather and suede offer some protection, they are best worn in dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain may damage the materials.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct size, as fit can vary. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger feel or thinner socks if the fit is too tight.

Suede material looks scuffed or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather appears creased

Creasing is a natural part of leather wear. You can help minimize deep creases by using shoe trees when not in use and conditioning the leather periodically.

Rubber outsole shows wear

The rubber outsole is designed for durability. If significant wear is observed, it may indicate heavy use or an incorrect gait. For normal wear, ensure the shoes are clean to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes require no setup upon arrival; they are ready to wear. They are compatible with most casual apparel. To care for your Top Ten RB shoes, it is recommended to clean the leather and suede surfaces with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes in water. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized leather cleaner. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Periodic treatment with a suede protector can help maintain the material's condition and repel moisture.
