FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Taekwondo Mei is designed as a casual lifestyle shoe and does not provide the impact protection or stability required for running.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Taekwondo Mei features a regular fit, which generally matches standard sizing for adidas Originals footwear.

Can I wash these in a machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe. Please stick to hand cleaning.

What does 'low profile' mean for comfort?

Low profile indicates a thinner sole unit. While this provides excellent ground feel and a sleek look, it offers less foam cushioning than 'chunky' style sneakers.

Can I replace the laces with standard ones?

Yes, while the shoes come with specific lacing options, they are compatible with standard-sized flat laces if you wish to customize them further.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel loose or slip during walking

Try one of the alternative lacing configurations provided to ensure a more secure lockdown across the bridge of the foot.

Leather surface shows scuffs

Use a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth with a small amount of leather cleaner to gently buff out minor marks.

Outsole loses traction over time

Regularly wipe the bottom of the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris that may reduce grip.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your adidas Originals Taekwondo Mei starts with selecting the right lacing configuration. You can experiment with the three provided lacing styles to see which fits your foot shape and aesthetic preference best.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial cleaners.
  • Maintenance: Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather discoloration and drying.
  • Protection: Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for leather to protect against accidental spills.
