FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

These shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and streetwear. While they offer comfort and durability for everyday activities, they do not provide the specialized support or performance features of dedicated athletic footwear.

What does 'XLG' stand for in the model name?

'XLG' typically refers to an 'extra large' or exaggerated version of the classic silhouette, featuring a bolder, chunkier sole and updated proportions.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider your usual shoe size and if you prefer a snug or roomier fit. The XLG fit might feel slightly different from the standard Superstar.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these shoes are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protector spray can add a layer of water resistance.

What is the material of the shoe?

The upper is primarily made of leather, with a rubber toe cap and sole. The specific details regarding the lining and insole can be found in the product's detailed specifications.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag is recommended.

Is the 'Gold Metallic' part of the color scheme noticeable?

Yes, the 'Gold Metallic' accents are integrated into the design, typically appearing on the branding elements like the heel tab or side stripes, adding a subtle yet distinct premium touch to the black and white base.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight. If the issue persists after a few wears, the leather may need time to break in, or a wider size might be necessary.

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly. Try a different lacing pattern or double-knotting the laces for a more secure tie.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a soft cloth and a suitable leather cleaner to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or repair kit may be needed.

Soles appear dirty

Wipe the rubber soles with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution. An old toothbrush can be useful for cleaning textured sole edges.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the 'Core Black White Gold Metallic' colorway.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
