How should I store my Adidas Superstars when not in use?

Troubleshooting
Tight fit or discomfort
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your foot. Using thicker socks during the break-in period can also help stretch the material slightly.
Leather scuffs or marks
For minor scuffs, try using a clean cloth with a small amount of leather conditioner or a specialized leather eraser. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Discoloration of white stripes or sole
Clean the affected areas with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a non-bleach shoe cleaner specifically designed for white rubber can be used cautiously.
Laces fraying
Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and material. Standard sneaker laces are widely available.
