FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for outdoor use?
No, the adidas Kaiser 5 Goal trainers are specifically designed with a non-marking gum rubber outsole for optimal performance and grip on polished indoor surfaces and for five-a-side games. They are not recommended for outdoor pitches.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe off dirt with a damp cloth after each use. For a deeper clean, use a mild leather cleaner with a soft brush or cloth, then allow to air dry naturally. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing.
My new trainers feel a bit tight. Will they loosen up?
Yes, the full-grain leather upper will naturally stretch and mold to the shape of your foot with wear, offering a more personalized and comfortable 'glove-like' fit after a short break-in period. Wearing them for shorter sessions initially can help.
What makes the outsole 'non-marking'?
The outsole is made from a specific type of gum rubber compound that is formulated to provide excellent grip on indoor surfaces without leaving scuff marks or streaks on polished floors, preserving the court's condition.
Is there any special care for the reinforced toe?
The reinforced toe is built for durability. Regular cleaning as described for the leather upper is sufficient. No special care beyond general maintenance is typically needed for this area.
How can I maintain the comfort of the EVA midsole?
The pre-molded EVA midsole provides cushioning throughout the product's lifespan. To help maintain its integrity, ensure proper storage and avoid excessive compression when not in use. Regular cleaning of the interior can also contribute to overall comfort.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable.
The Kaiser 5 Goal has a narrow, glove-like fit. Allow for a break-in period; the full-grain leather will stretch and mold to your foot over time. Ensure you are wearing appropriate sports socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the fit is truly suitable for your foot width.
Reduced grip on indoor surfaces.
Ensure the non-marking gum rubber outsole is clean. Dust or debris can accumulate and reduce traction. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth or use a soft brush to remove any buildup.
Leather upper appears dry or cracked.
Leather needs conditioning. Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for football boots/trainers to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Avoid drying them near direct heat sources.
Unpleasant odor inside the trainers.
After each use, allow the trainers to air out completely. Remove insoles if possible for faster drying. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside and leave overnight to absorb odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Initial Fit Check: When you first receive your trainers, try them on with the socks you typically wear for playing. Lace them up securely, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. Walk around and perform some light movements to assess comfort, especially given the "narrow, glove-like fit."
- Break-in Period: Like all leather footwear, these trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter periods during practice sessions to allow the full-grain leather to mold to your foot shape for optimal comfort and ball feel.
Compatibility
- Surfaces: These trainers are specifically designed for indoor surfaces. This includes polished gym floors, indoor courts, and artificial indoor turf (short pile).
- Activities: Ideal for evening soccer and five-a-side games where quick movements and precise ball control are key. They are not recommended for outdoor natural grass or artificial turf (long pile) as the outsole is not designed for those conditions.
Care
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: After each use, wipe down the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can dry out and crack the leather. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Outsole Cleaning: Use a brush to remove any dust or residue from the non-marking gum rubber outsole to maintain optimal grip.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
