FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The Galaxy 8 is optimized for everyday wear and light training. While they offer good support, they are not specifically engineered for high-mileage marathon running.
Can I put these trainers in the dryer?
No, never place your trainers in a dryer. High heat can melt adhesives and damage the cushioning foam.
How do I determine if 9.5 UK is the right size for me?
A proper fit should leave about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural swelling during activity.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The material is designed for breathability rather than water resistance; they may absorb water in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness around the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' style to alleviate pressure points across the top of the foot.
Outer sole picking up debris
Use a toothpick or a dull plastic tool to carefully remove stones or mud from the tread channels after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Galaxy 8 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods indoors for the first few days to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK sizing; ensure you use athletic socks to get an accurate feel for the intended fit.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesive and foam structure.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration and glue degradation.
