Full details

Their key benefit is the energy-returning BOOST midsole, providing a responsive feel for everyday wear. A potential caveat is that while the suede upper offers a premium look, it may require more specific care than synthetic materials.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the BOOST midsole offers responsive cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not specialized high-performance running.

How do I clean the iridescent details?

Gently wipe the iridescent areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, which could damage the finish.

What does 'BOOST midsole' mean?

BOOST is an adidas cushioning technology made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) pellets. It provides excellent energy return, responsiveness, and durability, making the shoes comfortable for extended wear.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede, and compromise the structure of the shoe.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of suede, with textile lining for comfort. It also contains a minimum of 50% recycled content.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by adidas and measure your foot accordingly. The product details mention this is a UK size 6 for adults.

What is the main colorway of this specific model?

The main colorway for this specific model is Aluminium / Royal Blue, with beige accents.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a cleaner specifically designed for suede, following product instructions.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Discomfort after extended wear

Check if the lacing is too tight or too loose. Ensure the correct size has been selected. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.

Reduced cushioning feel

The BOOST midsole is designed for durability, but the responsive feel may lessen over very long periods of heavy use. Ensure the shoes are clean, as debris can affect performance.
