Product Information

Full details

These adidas Paris Core trainers in white are ideal for adults seeking a blend of iconic '70s design and modern comfort for everyday wear. The key benefit is their versatile, minimalist style combined with durable, breathable leather construction. A potential caveat is that the gum outsole may offer less traction on very slick surfaces compared to more aggressive tread patterns. This shoe features a clean, all-leather upper, a low-profile silhouette, traditional lacing, and the signature three stripes.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Adidas Paris Core trainers offer comfort for walking, they are primarily designed for casual wear and do not provide the specialized support and cushioning needed for serious running.

How do I clean the white leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more stubborn marks, a leather cleaner can be applied with a soft cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What is the sizing like for these trainers?

These trainers generally follow standard Adidas sizing. It's recommended to check the size guide and consider the low-profile fit. The UK size 11.5 is specified for this model.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light, brief exposure to moisture, prolonged or heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What does 'minimalist 3-Stripes icon' mean?

It refers to the shoe's design featuring the classic Adidas three stripes in a subtle, understated way, contributing to a clean and simple overall aesthetic.

Are there other color options available?

The product information indicates this specific listing is for the 'Core White' colorway. Other colorways and sibling models may be available from the Adidas Originals or City Series collections.

How durable is the gum outsole?

The gum outsole is designed for lightweight grip and durability for everyday walking and casual use. It is not intended for high-impact activities or rough terrain, where it may show wear more quickly.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have properly loosened the laces before putting them on. The leather will naturally stretch slightly with wear. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if thicker socks are being used.

Leather shows creasing

Creasing is natural with leather footwear and often indicates the shoe is being worn as intended. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and use shoe trees when not in use.

Slight discoloration on white leather

Wipe clean with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid contact with dark-colored denim or other materials that might transfer dye.

Gum sole appears to be separating slightly

For minor separation, a strong adhesive suitable for rubber and leather can be applied. If the separation is significant or structural, contact customer support or a professional cobbler.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Suede Overlays: If your model has suede accents, use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture. Protect with a suede protector spray.
  • Outsole: Clean the gum outsole with water and a mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dry before storage.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
