FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Superstar II has roots in basketball heritage, they are primarily designed and best suited for casual wear and streetwear, not for performance on the court.

How do I clean the white leather upper?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated white leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean cloth.

What is the difference between Superstar and Superstar II?

The Superstar II often refers to updated or slightly modified versions of the original Superstar, sometimes with minor material or construction adjustments, while retaining the core iconic design.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

The specific model in this guide is White. The adidas Originals Superstar line is available in a wide variety of colors and materials across different releases.

What is the fit like?

These trainers have a regular fit. It is recommended to check the size guide for specific measurements, especially for larger sizes like UK 14.5.

Can I wash these shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash leather shoes. Cleaning should be done by hand using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products.

What material is the sole made of?

The outsole is made of rubber, designed to provide good grip and durability for everyday wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thinner socks or consider a shoe stretcher if the tightness is persistent. Ensure the correct size was purchased; refer to size guides.

Leather scuffs or scratches

For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather eraser. For deeper scratches, consult a shoe repair specialist.

Outsole losing grip

Clean the outsole thoroughly with soap and water to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be reducing traction.

Tongue is uncomfortable

Adjust the lacing to ensure the tongue sits correctly. The padding should provide comfort; if not, check for potential manufacturing defects.
