FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Rivalry 86 Low Shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle use. They may not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for high-impact athletic activities.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided by adidas, which typically includes measurements for foot length in centimeters or inches, and corresponding UK, EU, and US sizes. For this specific model, the UK size is 13.

What is the primary color of these shoes?

The primary color family is Beige, with secondary Black accents.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

These shoes are not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and ensure comfort.

What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Standard athletic or casual socks are suitable. For initial wear and breaking in, thinner socks might provide a more comfortable fit.

What other colors or sizes are available?

The adidas Rivalry 86 series comes in various colorways and sizes. Please check the retailer's or adidas' official website for a full range of available options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and allow the shoes to break in. If persistent, consider trying a half-size larger or exploring different lacing techniques.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

New shoe soles can sometimes be slippery. Wear them in different conditions to naturally scuff the sole. For a more permanent solution, consider a shoe repair shop for grip-enhancing treatments.

Discoloration on the upper material

Clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals. For specific materials like suede or leather, use specialized cleaners recommended for those materials.
