FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The adidas Tekwen Slip-On Trainers are designed primarily for comfort, casual wear, and light athletic activities like walking or gym warm-ups. While they offer an EVA midsole for cushioning, for dedicated running or high-impact sports, we recommend footwear specifically engineered for those activities with enhanced support and stability.
How do I choose the correct size?
We strongly recommend trying the trainers on to ensure the best fit. Always refer to the UK sizing, even if the box or internal label also displays US or Euro sizes. A comfortable fit should feel snug but not restrictive, with enough room for your toes to move slightly.
Can I wear these trainers without socks?
While technically possible, wearing socks is generally recommended. Socks help with hygiene, reduce friction to prevent blisters, and assist in managing moisture, especially with the breathable mesh tongue.
What is a 'regular fit' in adidas trainers?
A 'regular fit' indicates a standard sizing and shape designed to accommodate a broad range of foot types comfortably, without being excessively narrow or wide. As these are slip-ons, the regular fit ensures a secure feel without the need for lace adjustments.
How do I clean my Tekwen Slip-On Trainers?
To clean, gently wipe the synthetic upper and rubber outsole with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or submerging them in water.
What does 'three-quarter EVA midsole' mean?
A three-quarter EVA midsole means that the lightweight and cushioned EVA foam extends through approximately 75% of the sole, typically covering from the heel through the midfoot. This provides targeted comfort and shock absorption where it's most needed for daily wear and light activity.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Verify the UK size you purchased matches your usual footwear size. As these are slip-on trainers with a regular fit, they do not offer lacing for adjustment. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider a different size or product.
Feet feel sweaty or uncomfortable after prolonged wear.
While the mesh tongue provides breathability, wearing moisture-wicking socks can significantly enhance comfort. Ensure your trainers are aired out between uses. For intense activities, dedicated performance footwear might be more suitable.
Slipping sensation when walking.
The rubber outsole is designed for traction. Check for any dirt, mud, or debris on the outsole and clean it thoroughly with a damp cloth if necessary. Be aware that even rubber outsoles can have reduced grip on extremely wet, oily, or polished surfaces.
Scuff marks or stains on the synthetic upper.
For light scuffs or marks, gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid rubbing too vigorously, which could damage the material finish.

Care

- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not use a machine dryer.
