FAQs

Are the Y-3 Adios 9 suitable for running?

While they incorporate performance technology like Lightstrike Pro cushioning, they are primarily designed for fashion and everyday wear. For intense running, dedicated running shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. Generally, these trainers fit true to size, but trying them on or consulting reviews can help confirm the best fit for your foot shape.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or puddles to preserve the materials.

What is the main material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a woven one-way stretch mesh, designed for breathability and a comfortable, adaptive fit.

How does the cushioning perform?

The Lightstrike Pro cushioning is engineered to be lightweight and responsive, providing comfort and a degree of energy return for daily activities.

What makes the Y-3 Adios 9 unique?

Their uniqueness stems from the collaboration between Yohji Yamamoto's avant-garde fashion sense and adidas' performance expertise, resulting in a distinctive aesthetic and advanced material use.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular light cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring not to overtighten. If the issue persists, consider the fit and potential need for a different size.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Dirt on the mesh upper

Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh chemicals.

Laces becoming frayed

Replace the laces with a similar material and length to maintain the original look and functionality.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Y-3 Adios 9 trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are correctly laced for a secure and comfortable fit before your first use.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including joggers, jeans, and shorts. They are best suited for everyday wear and light activities rather than intense sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris from the woven mesh upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe the soles with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
