FAQs

What is the primary use case for the Rivalry 86 Low?

The Rivalry 86 Low is primarily designed for casual, everyday wear, offering a blend of comfort and iconic style inspired by classic basketball sneakers.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, these shoes are best suited for lifestyle and casual wear. They may not provide the specialized support and performance required for intense athletic activities.

How should I clean the beige and black material?

Use a soft, dry cloth for general cleaning. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

What does 'UK 9.5' sizing refer to?

This refers to the UK men's standard sizing system. It's recommended to consult an adidas sizing chart if you are unfamiliar with UK sizing.

Can these shoes be worn by women?

The sizing is specified as men's UK sizing. Women typically need to convert their size, often by going down 1.5 to 2 sizes from their usual women's UK size. Please check a conversion chart.

What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Ankle socks or crew socks in cotton or a blend work well for everyday comfort. For a sportier look, athletic socks can be a good choice.

What is the expected break-in period?

Like most casual shoes, a short break-in period of a few wears may be needed for them to conform to your foot shape and achieve maximum comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try them on again. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if they need a brief break-in period.

Discoloration on the material

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure to test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous spot first.

Soles feel slippery

New shoe soles can sometimes have a protective coating. Wear them in dry conditions initially or wipe the soles with a slightly damp cloth to remove any slickness.
