FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
While the Superstar silhouette has roots in basketball, the Vintage Bape Blue White edition is primarily a fashion sneaker. They are suitable for casual walking and daily wear, but not recommended for intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the Bape camouflage pattern?
Use a soft brush to gently remove dust and dirt. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture to prevent damage to the pattern.
What makes this collaboration special?
This collaboration merges the iconic adidas Superstar design with A Bathing Ape's (Bape) distinctive blue camouflage pattern and branding, creating a unique and highly sought-after collectible item.
Is the sizing true to size?
Generally, adidas Superstar trainers run true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult size charts or try them on if possible, as individual fit preferences can vary.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted from premium leather, providing a classic look, feel, and durability.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and preserve their appearance.
What is the significance of the 'Vintage' aspect?
The 'Vintage' designation refers to the design elements, such as the off-white rubber sole, that evoke a retro aesthetic reminiscent of earlier Superstar models, combined with the collaborative Bape details.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the leather
Use a white shoe eraser or a small amount of specialized leather cleaner on a soft cloth. Gently rub the affected area.
Discoloration of the camouflage pattern
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, it may be difficult to reverse. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Creasing on the leather upper
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking if the laces are too tight.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the condition and appearance of your trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather upper. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid machine washing.
- Suede/Camouflage Areas: For the camouflage pattern, use a soft brush to remove surface dirt. If the material is fabric-based, spot clean with a mild detergent and water solution, rinsing with a damp cloth.
- Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a mixture of water and mild soap.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the leather and fade colors.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
