FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The adidas Originals Paris Low Shoes are designed for casual wear and light activity. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for serious running.
How do I clean the blue suede parts?
For the suede accents, use a specialized suede brush to clean them. Avoid using water. A suede eraser can help with minor marks.
What is the fit like?
These shoes generally fit true to size, but individual fit can vary. It's recommended to check sizing charts and consider trying them on if possible.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials.
What does the 'City Series' refer to?
The 'City Series' was an iconic collection launched by adidas in the 1970s, featuring shoes named after major cities. The Paris model is part of this original collection.
How do I care for the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth for regular cleaning. Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep it supple and prevent drying. Protect with a suitable leather spray.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of a durable gum rubber, providing lightweight grip and flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for footwear. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.
Suede accents are dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dirt. For stubborn stains, a suede eraser might be effective, followed by brushing.
Gum outsole is marked
Try cleaning with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoe shape is lost when not worn
Utilize shoe trees made of cedarwood or plastic to help maintain the shoe's original shape when not in use.
