FAQs
Are these adidas Grand Base 00s Shoes waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is highly recommended to treat them with a suede protector spray to help repel water and prevent stains, and to avoid wearing them in wet conditions.
How do I clean the Court Green suede material?
For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions, ensuring to blot gently rather than rub. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.
What does '00s' series mean?
The '00s' series refers to the design aesthetic and inspiration drawn from footwear styles popular in the early 2000s, offering a retro yet modern look.
Are these shoes suitable for sports or intense activities?
These shoes are designed for casual, everyday wear and comfort, not for performance sports or intense physical activities. The construction and materials are optimized for style and relaxed use.
What kind of recycled content is used?
The shoes contain at least 20% recycled content, contributing to sustainability by reducing waste. Info needed: Specific types of recycled content may vary but typically include production waste or post-consumer household waste.
How should I store these shoes to maintain their shape?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's original shape and prevent creasing over time.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions.
Water spots or stains on suede
Allow the shoes to dry completely. Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser or a dry suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for water spots.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are adjusted correctly and not too tight. Wear thin socks initially or consider using a shoe stretcher designed for suede if discomfort persists after a break-in period.
Squeaking sound when walking
The sound might come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside with talcum powder, or placing a thin piece of fabric under the insole.
Scuffs or minor marks on suede
Gently rub the scuff with a suede eraser or a clean, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a suede brush can sometimes help to blend the nap.
