FAQs
Is the Yeezy 450 true to size?
The Yeezy 450 typically fits snug due to its sock-like upper, so many users prefer to go up half a size for a more relaxed fit.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual fashion use, not for high-intensity running or gym workouts.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, flexible knit material designed to mimic the feel of a sock.
Does the colour look strictly black?
The Dark Slate colourway features a blend of black and brown threads, which gives it a layered, multi-dimensional dark appearance.
How do I clean the EVA midsole?
Use a soft brush and mild soap to clear the deep grooves of the midsole, taking care not to scrub too hard to preserve the finish.
Are these shoes made in Germany?
Yes, the Yeezy 450 is the first Yeezy model to be produced in Germany.
Troubleshooting
Knit material appears slightly dusty
Gently use a lint roller or a soft, dry brush to lift dirt from the knit weave.
Midsole foam has scuff marks
Apply a mild soap solution with a soft cloth and wipe gently until the foam surface is clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Yeezy 450s maintain their appearance, proper care is essential. The knit upper should be spot-cleaned with a soft brush and mild detergent to avoid damaging the fibers. Because the EVA midsole features deep grooves, use a soft-bristled brush to remove any dust or debris trapped within the structure. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the knit material from fading. Given the snug, sock-like nature of the fit, ensure you select your correct size to avoid pressure points; the shoe is designed to stretch slightly to accommodate the foot over time.
