FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Continental 80 generally fits true to size, though the leather construction may feel snug at first.

Can I use these for running?

No, these are fashion trainers designed for lifestyle use, not for running or professional athletic performance.

How do I best clean the white leather?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and use a gentle leather cleaner. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Does the leather stretch over time?

Leather will naturally relax and soften with regular wear, providing a more customized fit over time.

Are they suitable for rainy weather?

The leather upper provides some resistance, but they are not waterproof and should be dried properly if exposed to heavy moisture.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain their shape.

Scuff marks on the white leather

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap to gently buff away surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Continental 80 trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: Wear them for short durations initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft cloth and a mild leather cleaner to wipe away dirt. For the white leather sections, avoid harsh chemicals that might strip the finish.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or color fading.
  4. Laces: Regularly wash or replace laces to maintain the clean appearance of the white aesthetic.
  5. Weather Protection: Consider applying a leather-safe water repellent spray to protect the exterior from unexpected rain.
