FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The adidas Gazelle Indoor trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light indoor activities. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for serious running.
How should I clean the suede material?
Use a soft suede brush for routine cleaning. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, then allow to air dry completely before brushing.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and affect its appearance. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.
What is the primary purpose of the 'Indoor' designation?
The 'Indoor' designation refers to the outsole design, which provides optimal grip and durability on indoor surfaces like gym floors or courts. While they can be worn outdoors, their performance and longevity are best preserved with indoor use.
How do I know if I have the correct UK size?
The product listing specifies UK sizing. It is recommended to consult a standard UK shoe size chart or try on a pair if possible to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary slightly between models.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede trainers as it can damage the material, shape, and adhesive. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.
What is the difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor models?
While both share the classic silhouette, Gazelle Indoor models are specifically designed with an outsole optimized for indoor court grip, whereas the standard Gazelle may have a sole more suited for general casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or stained
Use a suede eraser to gently remove marks. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing with a suede brush to restore texture.
Soles have lost grip
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be reducing traction.
Laces are frayed or dirty
Replace the laces with new ones of similar length and material. You can hand wash the original laces with mild detergent and allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the shoes are new, they may require a breaking-in period. Try wearing them for short periods initially. Check that the lacing is adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit.
