FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Retropy E5 is designed as a casual lifestyle trainer. It is not recommended for long-distance running or high-intensity athletic activities.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers use standard UK sizing. We recommend ordering your normal size, though you may prefer a half-size up if you intend to wear thicker socks.

Can these be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials and glue bonds. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.

Are they unisex?

The product is generally marketed for males, but the design is neutral and can be worn by anyone who finds the size and fit comfortable.

What is the best way to store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the grey colour from fading over time.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel too tight across the top of the foot

Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping eyelets in the area where you feel pressure to reduce restriction.

Foot slipping inside the trainer

Ensure the laces are tightened properly to lock the heel in place; if slipping persists, consider adding a supportive insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Retropy E5 trainers last, follow these guidelines:

  • Setup: When wearing them for the first time, ensure the laces are loosened entirely to allow your foot to enter comfortably before adjusting to your desired tension.
  • Compatibility: These trainers are standard UK sizes; it is recommended to stick to your typical footwear size for the best fit.
  • Cleaning: To keep the grey fabric clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water on a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric or colour. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
