FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is crafted from high-quality, soft suede.

Are these suitable for sports?

While inspired by sports heritage, these are primarily designed as casual lifestyle shoes for everyday comfort and style, not for intense athletic performance.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and avoid excessive water.

What is the main color and accent color?

The main color is 'Grey Five' (a muted, deep gray), with navy blue accents on the three stripes and heel counter.

Does this model offer good grip?

Yes, the signature rubber outsole is designed to provide excellent grip on various surfaces.

What does the gold foil detail represent?

The gold foil details, such as the Gazelle name, discreetly highlight the shoe's authenticity and historic design heritage.

Is the fit standard?

Yes, these shoes feature a standard fit and traditional lace closure for adjustability and a secure feel.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and restore its texture. For stubborn marks, a suede cleaner may be required.

Shoes got wet

Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain shape. Avoid direct heat sources.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with standard athletic laces of a similar length. Clean existing laces separately by hand.

Sole scuffs easily

Light scuffs on the caramel rubber sole can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, accept as part of normal wear or consider a colored shoe polish designed for rubber.
