Product Information

Full details

The adidas Gazelle Bold trainers in Black/White/Gum are designed for adult women seeking a blend of iconic vintage style and modern comfort. Their key benefit is the bold, triple-stacked platform sole that elevates a classic silhouette for contemporary street fashion. A potential consideration is that the platform design may require a slight adjustment period for walking and can be heavier than standard trainers. This reimagined classic features a black suede upper, white leather accents including the iconic three stripes, and a distinctive gum rubber outsole for reliable traction.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, the Gazelle Bold trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion. The platform sole is not optimized for the impact and flexibility required for running.

How do I clean the gum sole?

The gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe it gently and ensure it is completely dry before wearing or storing.

Is the platform sole heavy?

The triple-stacked platform sole does add some weight compared to a standard trainer, which is a characteristic of its bold design. This is usually not an issue for casual wear.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from black suede, with white leather accents for the iconic three stripes and heel tab.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions, as moisture can damage the suede. While the gum sole offers some water resistance, the suede upper is the main concern.

Are there other colorways available for the Gazelle Bold?

Yes, the Gazelle Bold series is available in various colorways and material combinations, often with different accent colors and sole options.

How do the women's sizes compare to men's?

These trainers are specifically sized for women. It's recommended to consult an adidas size chart to convert between women's, men's, and international sizing if needed.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is common with new suede shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in gradually. The suede and sole will become more flexible with use.

Suede appears discolored or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.

Platform sole feels cumbersome when walking

Adjust your walking gait to accommodate the thicker sole. Focus on heel-to-toe rolling. Shorten your stride slightly if needed until you adapt to the new height and structure.

White leather stripes show scuff marks

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, a non-abrasive household cleaner or a specialized leather cleaner can be used cautiously.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: The adidas Gazelle Bold trainers are designed for adult women. Their sizing is specific to women's foot measurements. They are compatible with a wide range of casual outfits, including jeans, leggings, shorts, and casual dresses.

Care:

  1. Suede Care: Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and debris. For stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive water, as suede can be damaged by soaking.
  2. Leather Accents: Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the leather.
  3. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure the sole is dry before storing.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
