Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Consider using a double knot or replacing with slightly textured athletic laces to increase grip.
Outer sole appears slippery on wet surfaces
Wipe the soles with a dry cloth to ensure they are free of dust or debris, which can accumulate and reduce grip.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree or stuff the toe box with paper when not in use to help maintain the shoe's shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Hoops MID Trainers, follow these simple care steps:
- Fit Adjustment: Loosen the laces completely before your first wear to adjust the tension according to your foot width.
