FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Generally, adidas Gazelle sneakers are considered true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual. If unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size chart.

Can I wear these for running or sports?

No, while the Gazelle originally started as a training shoe, the modern Indoor version is designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker. It lacks the support and cushioning required for high-impact sports or running.

How often should I clean the suede?

Regular light cleaning with a suede brush after each wear can prevent dirt buildup. For deeper cleaning or stains, treat as needed, ideally as soon as possible after they occur.

What is the 'Trefoil' motif?

The Trefoil is adidas's original logo, introduced in 1972, representing the main landmasses of the Americas, Europe and Africa, and Asia. It's often found on adidas Originals products, highlighting their classic and heritage lines.

Is the transparent gum sole durable?

The rubber outsole, including the transparent gum sole, is designed for everyday durability. With proper care and cleaning, it will maintain its integrity and unique appearance over time.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions as it can stain and become damaged. If you anticipate wet weather, it's best to treat the suede with a water-repellent protector spray or choose alternative footwear.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush with rubber bristles to gently restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction.

White suede has visible stains or scuffs

For light marks, use a suede eraser. For deeper stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions, then brush.

Transparent gum sole appears dirty or cloudy

Clean the gum sole with a soft cloth or brush dipped in a solution of mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Sneakers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

Wear the shoes for short periods around the house to gradually break them in. The suede will soften and conform to your foot over time.

Care for your adidas Gazelle Indoor sneakers is crucial, especially due to the suede material and white color. Regular maintenance will preserve their iconic look:

Care Instructions

  1. Suede Cleaning: For general dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently brush away debris. For tougher spots, a specialized suede cleaner and eraser are recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
  2. Stain Removal: Act quickly on stains. Dab, don't rub, with a clean cloth. For liquid stains, use a dry cloth to absorb as much as possible before treating with a suede-specific cleaner.
  3. Gum Sole Maintenance: Clean the transparent gum sole with a mild soap and water solution and a soft cloth or brush to remove dirt and maintain its clarity. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  4. Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains, re-applying periodically as directed by the product.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or damage to the suede.
