FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
adidas Gazelle trainers generally run true to size. For best fit, refer to the adidas sizing chart or try them on if possible.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the leather and maintain their condition. Consider a waterproof spray for added protection.
How do I maintain the color of the leather?
Regular cleaning and conditioning are key. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure which can cause fading. Use products specifically designed for brown leather.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These adidas Originals Gazelle trainers are designed for casual wear and style, not for performance sports or intense physical activity. They are best suited for everyday comfort and showing team support.
What is the best way to store them when not in use?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help them retain their shape and prevent creases. Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag.
Is the Manchester United logo durable?
The club crest on the heel and foil branding are designed to be durable for normal wear. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh cleaning on these areas to preserve them.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or cracked.
Apply a dedicated leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the material. Ensure trainers are cleaned before conditioning.
Stubborn dirt marks on the gum sole.
Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap or a specialized shoe cleaner designed for rubber soles. A soft brush can help with textured areas.
Unpleasant odor developing inside trainers.
Allow trainers to air out after each wear. Consider using shoe deodorizers or placing baking soda in them overnight to absorb odors. Ensure socks are worn.
