What kind of grip does the outsole provide?
The trainers feature nimble gum outsoles, which provide lightweight construction and reliable grip on various surfaces, particularly good for urban environments.
Can I wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning should be done manually using appropriate methods for leather, suede, and rubber as outlined in the care instructions.
What does 'gold foil wordmarks' refer to?
This refers to the Adidas branding, such as the model name or logo, which is printed on the shoe using a metallic gold foil for a premium, vintage appearance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
Use a suitable leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, a leather repair cream might be necessary.
Gum outsole appears dirty
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mixture of mild soap and water can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth.
Suede areas look matted or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the texture and lift away surface dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or cleaner may be required.
