Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Taekwondo Mei is designed for a very snug, glove-like fit. Many users prefer to size up by half a size if they prefer more room in the toe box.
Can I use these for actual Taekwondo practice?
While inspired by martial arts, this is a lifestyle sneaker collaboration. For professional sparring or training, we recommend dedicated adidas martial arts footwear.
How do I care for the suede components?
If your pair features suede, use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove dirt. Avoid water as much as possible to prevent staining.
Are these sneakers unisex?
These specific trainers are designed with a female-specific fit profile.
Do they provide good arch support?
These shoes feature a minimalist, low-profile sole. They offer very little arch support, so individuals requiring high arch support may wish to use an aftermarket insole.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are generally glued in to maintain the sleek internal profile, but they can be removed with care if you need to insert orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few wears
The Taekwondo Mei is designed with a snug, performance-fit. Try wearing thinner socks initially or use a shoe stretcher if you need to slightly loosen the upper material.
Difficulty cleaning the cream colorway
Avoid using harsh detergents. Opt for a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, dabbing rather than scrubbing to preserve the texture of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these sneakers are designed for a snug fit, you may need to adjust your expectations regarding sizing if you are used to roomier athletic trainers. To maintain the appearance of your adidas Taekwondo Mei shoes, we recommend the following care tips:
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks on the cream or black elements, use a specialized sneaker cleaner safe for the specific material finish.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a high-quality water and stain repellent spray can help protect the outer materials from the elements. Always test the spray on a small, inconspicuous area first.
