FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from soft leather.

What is the sole made of?

The shoe features a gum rubber outsole.

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

These are lifestyle shoes designed for casual wear and comfort, not for intense athletic activities.

How do I clean the blue accents?

Use a slightly damp cloth for the blue accents. Avoid harsh cleaners that could affect the colour.

What does 'City Series' refer to?

The 'City Series' was a collection launched by adidas in the 1970s, featuring shoes inspired by major cities. The Paris model is part of this original collection.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

While the leather can withstand light moisture, they are not waterproof. The gum sole may also offer reduced traction in wet conditions. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What is the difference between low shoes and trainers in this model?

The 'Low Shoes' designation refers to the cut and silhouette, typically a classic, low-profile sneaker. 'Trainers' can sometimes imply a slightly more athletic or robust design, though in this context, both refer to casual sneakers within the same style lineage.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Leather can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. Using thicker socks can also help stretch them gently. If the tightness is significant, consider if the size is appropriate.

Creasing on leather upper

Creasing is natural with leather footwear due to movement. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure the shoes are stored properly with shoe trees or stuffed with paper when not in use. Avoid bending them excessively.

Gum sole looks dirty

Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with a mild soap solution to gently clean the gum sole. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: These are casual lifestyle shoes compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They are suitable for adult wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper or a towel to help them retain their shape and air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially if you plan to wear them in varied weather conditions.
  4. Soles: Periodically check the gum outsole for any embedded debris and clean gently.
