FAQs
Are these suitable for running?
The Gazelle Indoor trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They offer comfort but lack the specialized support and cushioning needed for serious running.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart provided by the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Trying them on in-store is the most accurate method.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, suede, and adhesives. Hand clean using the methods described in the Care section.
What is the difference between Gazelle and Gazelle Indoor?
The Gazelle Indoor often features a slightly slimmer profile and a gum rubber sole, inspired by indoor sports shoes from the past. The classic Gazelle may have a thicker sole and different material combinations.
How durable is the leather upper?
The leather upper is designed for durability in casual use. Regular cleaning and care will help maintain its condition and longevity.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Gazelle Indoor model is available in various colorways, often featuring different combinations of primary colors and accent colors like the Victory Red shown here.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try inserting a thin insert or powder under the insole, or ensure laces are not overtightened.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid bending the shoes sharply at the toe. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain their shape.
Gum sole losing grip
Ensure the gum sole is clean from dirt and debris. If the sole appears worn down, it may be time to consider replacement, as grip diminishes with significant wear.
Discoloration on suede areas
Suede is sensitive to moisture and dirt. Use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner. Protect with a suede protector spray before wearing in potentially wet conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
- Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly.
- Cleaning the Suede: Use a suede brush to maintain the nap and remove dry dirt. Avoid water on the suede areas.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if heavily soiled. Hand wash with mild soap and water.
- Soles: Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to maintain shape.
