Product Information
Full details
The Adidas Paris trainers are designed for vintage sneaker enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate the low-profile aesthetic of classic 1970s indoor training footwear. These shoes provide a timeless, heritage-inspired look with a premium leather construction that elevates everyday casual outfits; however, because they feature a low-profile midsole originally built for indoor use, they may not offer the high-impact cushioning found in modern performance athletic trainers.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, these are standard UK sizing. If you have wider feet, you may find the low-profile design fits snugly, so consider wearing thin socks.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
These are lifestyle trainers based on vintage indoor designs. They lack the advanced shock absorption and lateral support needed for high-intensity gym sessions.
How do I remove scuffs from the leather?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the red dye.
Is the leather waterproof?
No, the leather is not treated for waterproof performance. It is recommended to apply a water-repellent spray designed for leather if you plan to wear them in light rain.
What is the City Series?
The City Series is a historic collection by Adidas that produced specific shoe designs inspired by the style and culture of various iconic cities.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing creases at the forefoot
This is natural for premium leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain their shape.
Outsole losing grip
Wipe the bottom of the soles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may reduce traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are leather shoes, they benefit from a brief 'break-in' period to allow the material to contour to your foot shape. For compatibility, their slim profile works best with tapered jeans, slim-fit chinos, or casual skirts. To maintain the condition of the red leather and cream accents, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. We recommend using a soft-bristled brush to remove dust after use and applying a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material from drying out or cracking.
