FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
The adidas Gazelle trainers in this variant feature a leather upper construction.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and not for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How should I clean the blue leather?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner, and always test on a small, hidden area first.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.
What does 'Gazelle' refer to?
Gazelle is a historic model line from adidas, known for its iconic design that originated in the 1960s.
Is this shoe available in other sizes or colors?
Yes, the adidas Gazelle series is typically available in a variety of sizes and colorways. Please check the product listings for available options.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing chart and try them on to ensure a snug but comfortable fit. The lacing closure allows for adjustment.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Ensure you are using the correct size and consider using shoe trees when not in use to maintain shape. Leather will naturally crease with wear.
Slight discoloration after cleaning
Ensure the cloth used is clean and damp, not wet. Test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to dry naturally.
Sole becoming detached
This indicates significant wear or a potential manufacturing defect. For minor detachment, specialized shoe adhesive may be used carefully. For major issues, consult a professional cobbler or consider replacement.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
