FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Gazelle generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can I wear these for sports?
These are lifestyle trainers. While they are comfortable for walking, they lack the technical cushioning and support required for high-impact sports or running.
How do I clean the green leather?
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away surface dirt and apply a leather conditioner to keep the colour vibrant.
Is the leather material sustainable?
Adidas uses a variety of materials; check the specific product tag for the most up-to-date information regarding material sourcing for your pair.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The classic Gazelle silhouette is relatively narrow. If you have wide feet, you may find the leather stretches slightly over time, but you might consider going up a half size.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
This is common with leather trainers; use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain shape.
Difficulty keeping laces tied
Consider a double-knot or replacing the factory laces with textured cotton laces for extra grip.
Surface scuffs on leather
Use a matching green leather cream or a neutral leather wax to buff out minor surface abrasions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Gazelles, ensure the fit is snug but comfortable around the midfoot. For care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the leather surface. Avoid machine washing, as water can damage the leather finish and warp the shape. For deeper cleaning, utilize a leather-specific conditioner and cleaner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to stiffen.
