FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the leather upper offers some protection against light moisture, they are not waterproof and should not be submerged or worn in heavy rain.
How should I clean the white sections?
Use a mixture of mild soap and warm water with a soft-bristled brush to spot clean the white stripes and shell toe.
Does this model fit true to size?
Yes, these are standard UK sizing. However, if you plan to wear very thick socks, some users prefer to size up by a half size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics for added arch support.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual use and walking, not for high-impact running or intense athletic training.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Scuff marks on the shell toe
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a damp magic eraser to gently buff out marks from the shell toe surface.
Shoe feels too stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house with thick socks to gently stretch and break in the leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Superstars remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. Start by ensuring you have selected your correct UK adult size (UK 8 for this model) as leather shoes have limited stretch. For compatibility, these trainers pair naturally with denim, chinos, or athletic joggers. To care for the leather, wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dust and salt. If the leather begins to look dull, apply a neutral leather conditioner. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this will damage the adhesive and the leather grain; instead, air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
