adidas Japan Sneaker - Black - Size 7

No, the Adidas Japan Sneakers are primarily designed for casual wear and style, not for performance running, training, or intense sports activities. Their construction prioritizes classic aesthetics and everyday comfort.

This variant is UK Size 7. We recommend referring to the official adidas size chart for precise measurements and guidance, as fit can vary slightly between models. Considering your usual adidas size is also helpful.

While the leather offers some natural resistance, these sneakers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to prevent damage to the leather and suede. A protective spray can offer some water repellency.

The iconic 3-Stripes are typically an appliqué material designed to complement the leather upper, providing a contrasting texture and color consistent with adidas's classic designs.

The 'Gold Met.' (Metallic Gold) accents are typically durable. To maintain their appearance, avoid abrasive cleaning materials directly on them. Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth if needed.

'Tumbled' refers to a process that softens the leather and gives it a slightly textured, natural grain. 'Perforated' means it has small holes, often for subtle design detail and minimal breathability, contributing to the shoe's classic look.

Gently clean with a damp, soft cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, following product instructions carefully. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Use a suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals on suede.

Leather shoes often require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape naturally.

Check if the insole is properly seated inside the shoe. Sometimes, a sprinkle of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole can reduce friction causing the squeak.
