FAQs
Are the adidas Continental 80 shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear thick socks, some users recommend sizing up by half.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the materials and glue.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Continental 80 is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear and walking, not for high-impact sports or long-distance running.
How do I remove scuff marks from the grey accents?
A soft-bristled brush or a dedicated sneaker eraser works best to gently buff out scuff marks without damaging the texture.
What material is the upper made of?
The Continental 80 typically features a durable synthetic or leather upper, providing a structured feel and a clean finish.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the upper material
Use shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep creases.
Visible dirt on white surfaces
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft cloth with gentle soap and water immediately after noticing the stain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low-top shoes, they pair naturally with both no-show socks for a sleek look or standard crew socks for a classic vintage aesthetic. To maintain the appearance of your adidas Continental 80, wipe the leather or synthetic upper with a damp cloth after each use to prevent dust buildup. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush, ensuring you air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
