FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Gazelle is a lifestyle trainer inspired by football culture and lacks the cushioning and structural support needed for running.
How should I clean the white sections?
Use a soft-bristled brush or a cloth dampened with a mild soap solution, taking care not to let excess water soak into the suede areas.
Does the size fit true to size?
Generally, the Gazelle fits true to size, though the slim profile may feel slightly narrower than modern technical sneakers.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended, as moisture can cause the suede to stain or lose its shape.
What is the 'Terrace Icons' significance?
It refers to the 1980s British football culture where fans, often referred to as 'casuals,' wore high-end sportswear and trainers on the stadium terraces.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs on the suede upper
Use a specialized suede brush or gum eraser to gently lift the mark without damaging the nap.
Visible water spots
Allow the shoes to dry naturally at room temperature, then brush the suede in one direction to restore uniformity.
Tighter than expected fit
Loosen the laces fully before putting on the shoe and consider wearing thinner socks until the materials naturally break in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When unboxing your new trainers, ensure the fit is snug across the midfoot. To maintain the condition of the suede, apply a protective water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede leather before the first wear. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the suede texture and compromise the adhesive. To clean, use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt, or a dedicated suede eraser for targeted marks. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
