FAQs

What is the primary material of the adidas Gazelle Indoor in Olive Strata?

The upper is crafted from a combination of soft suede and durable leather. The leather used is sourced through the Leather Working Group for sustainability.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities or sports?

While the Gazelle Indoor has roots in indoor training, its modern design is optimized for everyday casual wear and style, rather than high-performance sports or intense physical activity.

How do I clean the translucent gum sole?

The gum sole can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn marks, a sneaker sole cleaner can be effective. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.

What does 'one-to-one reissue' mean?

It means the shoe is an exact recreation of its original design from 1979, down to the details, proportions, and textures, providing an authentic retro experience.

What is the Leather Working Group (LWG)?

The Leather Working Group is a global multi-stakeholder community that promotes sustainable and responsible practices within the leather industry. adidas's use of LWG-sourced leather signifies a commitment to reducing environmental impact.

Is the sizing true to fit for the Gazelle Indoor?

Yes, the adidas Gazelle Indoor typically runs true to size with a regular fit. Customers should order their usual UK shoe size for a comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dirty

Gently brush the suede in one direction with a suede brush to lift the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Leather appears dull or dry

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream, rubbing it in gently with a clean cloth to restore luster and suppleness.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

The premium materials, especially the leather lining, may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to mold to the shape of your feet naturally.

Unpleasant odor develops inside the shoe

Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each use. You can use odor-absorbing inserts or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside overnight to neutralize smells. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless Aesthetic: The classic design ensures versatility and enduring style, suitable for various casual outfits.
  • High-Quality Materials: Utilizes premium suede and leather, including sustainable sourcing through the Leather Working Group.
  • Comfortable for Daily Wear: Designed with a leather lining and regular fit for sustained comfort.
  • Authentic Heritage Details: Faithful recreation of original elements like the translucent gum sole and gold foil branding.
  • Durable Construction: Built to last with quality materials and craftsmanship.

Cons

  • Material Care: Suede and leather require specific cleaning and maintenance to preserve their appearance.
  • Not for Performance Sports: While rooted in indoor training, these are primarily lifestyle shoes and not designed for intense athletic performance.
  • Fit Preference: 'Regular fit' may not suit all foot types, consider trying on if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Lacing: The shoes feature a traditional lace closure. Adjust laces to achieve a snug, comfortable fit that supports your foot without being too tight.
  2. Initial Wear: As with any new footwear, it's recommended to wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: The Gazelle Indoor runs true to adidas's standard UK sizing. Refer to the size chart if unsure. This specific model is a UK 8.5 (male adult).
  • Apparel: Compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual clothing, including denim, chinos, shorts, and track pants.
  • Occasion: Perfect for daily wear, social outings, light urban activities, and any situation where style and comfort are prioritized over high-performance athletic needs.

Care:

  • Cleaning Suede: For the suede areas, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive water.
  • Cleaning Leather: For leather sections, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner. Condition the leather periodically to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
  • Drying: If shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Apply a protective spray suitable for suede and leather to help repel water and stains, extending the life and appearance of your shoes.
