FAQs
What makes the adidas Superstar Neighborhood Cement Grey unique?
This trainer is a limited edition collaboration between adidas and the Japanese streetwear brand Neighborhood. It features unique branding, including debossed logos and graphics, along with premium materials and a distinctive midsole design.
What materials are these trainers made of?
The upper is primarily constructed from grained leather, complemented by monochrome suede on the signature three stripes and heel patch.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and maintain the suede's texture. Avoid using water, and for stains, opt for a suede-specific cleaner.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
While they share the iconic Superstar silhouette, these are designed more as a fashion and lifestyle sneaker due to the premium materials and limited edition details. They offer comfort for everyday wear but are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
What is the significance of the 'Neighborhood' branding?
Neighborhood is a renowned Japanese streetwear brand. Their inclusion on the shoe signifies a collaborative design effort, bringing their distinct aesthetic to the classic adidas Superstar model.
What size is the shoe shown in the description?
The product description specifically mentions a UK size 7.5, though other sizes may be available.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear these trainers in wet weather, especially due to the suede accents, which can be damaged by water. Leather can also be affected by prolonged exposure to moisture.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather
Some creasing is natural with leather shoes. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Suede becoming stiff or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore texture. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully.
Color transfer from suede to leather
This can occur if the suede gets wet. Ensure the shoes are kept dry. If transfer occurs, try cleaning the affected leather area with a mild leather cleaner.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males and unisex wear. They pair well with casual and streetwear attire.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the grained leather upper with a slightly damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for athletic shoes.
- Cleaning the Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap of the suede accents. Avoid using water on suede.
- Midsole and Outsole: Clean the rubber sole and midsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Stubborn marks on the rubber can sometimes be removed with a magic eraser, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a gentle cycle.
- Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
