FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The Adidas Gazelle 'Faded Archive' Trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort, they are not intended for high-impact sports or specialized athletic training.

How do I clean the green leather?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner, applying it gently with a cloth. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.

What does 'Faded Archive' refer to?

'Faded Archive' likely refers to a color palette or design treatment that evokes vintage, slightly worn aesthetics, inspired by past Adidas collections.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag is also recommended.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The 'Faded Archive' edition specifically refers to this green and white colorway. However, the Adidas Gazelle series is available in a wide variety of colors and materials across different releases.

What is the fit like?

The Gazelle generally offers a true-to-size fit for most individuals. However, if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to size up for a more comfortable fit, especially with leather.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and ensure comfort.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.

Discoloration

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean with appropriate leather care products for the specific color.

Slight discomfort on first wear

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Ensure the size is correct.

Soles appear dirty

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently clean the rubber soles. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions:

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain shape and protect from dust.
