FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Superstar XLG is a unisex model. Men should generally take their usual size. Women typically find it beneficial to go down a half to a full size for a more accurate fit.
What are the main differences between the Superstar XLG and the classic Superstar?
The primary difference is the XLG version features a significantly larger, platform-style sole for a more exaggerated look and added cushioning, compared to the standard sole of the classic Superstar.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is typically a combination of leather and synthetic materials, designed for durability and comfort.
Can I wear these for sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer comfort, they are not specialized for athletic performance.
How do I clean the white rubber sole?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water, or a specialized shoe cleaner. For tough scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Do the gold details chip or fade easily?
The gold metallic accents are designed for durability, but like any finish, they can be susceptible to wear over time with heavy use. Gentle cleaning will help maintain their appearance.
What is the release date of this specific model?
The release date for this particular variant (IG9777) was July 18, 2023.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off.
Refer to the adidas sizing chart and consider the unisex nature of the shoe. For women, it is often recommended to size down by a half or full size from their usual women's size.
Gold accents appear dull.
Gently clean the metallic gold areas with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
Creasing on the upper.
Some creasing is natural with leather and synthetic materials. To minimize this, ensure proper fit and use shoe trees for storage when not in use.
