FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for all seasons?
The nubuck upper makes them particularly well-suited for colder seasons and transitional weather. While wearable year-round, they might be less breathable than mesh alternatives in peak summer heat.
How do I maintain the matte finish of the nubuck?
Regularly brush off dust and dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, ensuring not to oversaturate the material. Protectants designed for nubuck can help maintain the finish.
What is adiPRENE?
adiPRENE is an adidas cushioning technology designed to provide comfort and shock absorption in the heel area of the shoe, reducing impact during walking or running.
What is the main difference between this Ozweego and older models?
This specific release features a nubuck upper instead of the traditional mesh, offering a different texture and suitability for cooler weather. The color scheme also deviates from more vibrant retro options.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended for trainers with nubuck and suede materials as it can damage the structure and finish of the shoe.
Do the reflective details work in all lighting conditions?
The reflective details are designed to catch and reflect light sources, such as headlights or streetlights, making you more visible in low-light conditions. They do not emit their own light.
Troubleshooting
Nubuck material feels stiff or dry
Apply a small amount of suede conditioner or a specialized nubuck protector spray to restore suppleness.
Difficulty cleaning stubborn marks on the upper
Use a dedicated nubuck cleaner or a soft-bristled brush with minimal water. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the gum rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For significantly reduced grip, consider the age and wear of the outsole.
Reflective details appear worn
Reflective elements can fade over time with extensive wear and cleaning. Gentle cleaning methods will help preserve them longer.
