FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper of the adidas Superstar II "Core Black" is crafted from durable suede.
How do I clean these shoes?
For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and a suede eraser for stains. For deeper cleaning, use a suede cleaner. Avoid soaking or using harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry.
Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?
While durable, the suede upper is not fully waterproof and is best suited for dry conditions. Heavy rain or moisture can damage the suede.
What type of fit do these shoes offer?
These shoes feature a standard fit and a lace-up model, allowing for a comfortable and adjustable fit for most foot types.
Can I use these shoes for sports activities?
The adidas Superstar II is designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for high-performance sports or athletic activities.
What makes the Superstar design iconic?
The Superstar's iconic status comes from its distinctive shell-shaped toe cover and the notched three stripes on the sides, elements that have defined its style for decades.
Is the sizing true to standard UK shoe sizes?
Yes, these shoes are designed with a standard fit, so it is generally recommended to choose your usual UK adult shoe size.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a soft suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing tension. The lace-up design allows for personalized tightness. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks; thin socks for a looser feel, thicker socks for a snugger fit.
White accents (laces, logos) are discolored.
Gently clean white laces with mild soap and water, then air dry. For logos and stitching, use a slightly damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap, then wipe clean with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Sole is losing grip.
Check the rubber sole for embedded debris and clean it. Ensure the sole is dry before walking on smooth surfaces. If the sole tread is significantly worn, it may indicate natural wear and tear over time.

Care:
- Cleaning Suede: For general cleaning, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For minor stains, gently rub with a suede eraser. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Laces: Laces can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried if they become dirty.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, which can damage suede.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
