FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Gazelle Indoor generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to go up a half size.
Can I use these for indoor sports?
While originally designed as indoor court shoes, they are now marketed as lifestyle sneakers and lack the modern technical support required for competitive athletics.
How do I maintain the gum rubber sole?
Wipe the rubber edges with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove scuffs and maintain their clean appearance.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The suede upper is susceptible to water damage, so it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What is the history of the Gazelle Indoor?
The Gazelle first debuted in the late 1960s, with the indoor version specifically gaining popularity in 1979 for its gum sole and distinctive profile.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
This is a natural result of movement in suede footwear. Using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Surface stains on the upper
Gently use a dry suede eraser or a soft brush to lift debris; do not use heavy liquid cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the vibrant teal fabric over time. Given the material, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before initial wear to protect against light stains and moisture. If the shoes become dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the glue and suede texture. Check the laces periodically to ensure they are properly tensioned for your specific foot width.
