FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Superstar generally fits true to standard adult sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may consider a half-size up for comfort.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to hand-clean them with a damp cloth. Machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are classified as lifestyle trainers and do not provide the necessary cushioning or breathability required for running.
How do I prevent creases in the leather?
While creasing is a natural part of leather wear, using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain the shape and reduce deep, permanent creases.
What is the best way to clean the white leather?
Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water applied with a soft brush or cloth, followed by a dry wipe-down.
Troubleshooting
The shoes feel too stiff upon first wear.
Wear slightly thicker socks during the first few outings and ensure the laces are adjusted to your comfort level to help the leather flex.
Scuff marks on the rubber shell toe.
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently scrub the rubber surface until the marks disappear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Superstar trainers last, keep these guidelines in mind:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather and shell toe to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to maintain the integrity of the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the white finish over time.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent creases from developing into cracks.
