FAQs

How do I clean the suede on my adidas Tobacco sneakers?

To clean the suede, first remove loose dirt with a suede brush. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a suede-specific cleaning product according to its instructions. Always avoid saturating the suede with water.

Are these shoes suitable for wet weather conditions?

Suede is generally not ideal for wet conditions. We highly recommend treating your sneakers with a waterproof suede protector spray to help repel moisture, but prolonged exposure to rain or puddles should be avoided.

What is the fit like for UK size 12?

adidas Originals Tobacco sneakers typically fit true to size. For a UK size 12, they should offer a comfortable and standard fit for most adults. If you're between sizes, consider trying your usual size first.

What material are the 3-Stripes made of?

The iconic 3-Stripes on this particular model are crafted from serrated leather, providing a subtle textural contrast to the 'Collegiate Green' suede upper.

Can these sneakers be used for athletic activities?

While durable, the adidas Originals Tobacco are designed as a leisure shoe with a conservative profile, not for high-performance sports. They are best suited for casual wear and daily activities.

How can I prevent the green color from fading?

Regular treatment with a high-quality suede protector spray can help shield the 'Collegiate Green' color from fading due to dirt, light moisture, and UV exposure. Store them away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty, or has minor stains.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, apply a suede-specific cleaner following its instructions, then brush once dry.

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure you have the correct UK size 12. Adjust your lacing technique to better suit your foot. If discomfort persists, consider trying them on again later in the day when feet are typically at their largest.

Shoes get wet and look discolored.

Blot excess water immediately with a clean cloth. Stuff the shoes with newspaper and allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Regular application of a suede protector spray can help prevent this issue.

Gum rubber soles seem to be losing grip.

Clean the soles regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove accumulated dirt and debris that can reduce traction. Ensure the soles are not excessively worn; if they are, professional resoling might be an option.

No complex setup is required for your adidas Originals Tobacco sneakers; simply lace them up and enjoy. These sneakers are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles, making them a versatile addition to your wardrobe. For optimal care of the premium suede material:

  • Cleaning: Gently brush off dry dirt and dust with a specialized suede brush. For tougher spots or stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, treat your suede sneakers with a high-quality suede protector spray. This will help repel water and prevent stains.
  • Drying: If your sneakers get wet, stuff them loosely with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the suede.
  • Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing.
