FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear and active play?

Yes, the adidas Originals Gazelle kids trainers are designed with a durable suede upper, cushioned fit, and grippy rubber outsole, making them ideal for everyday wear and supporting energetic children during active play.

How should I clean the suede material?

For best results, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. For deeper cleaning, a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Always air dry away from direct heat and avoid machine washing.

What age range are these trainers for?

These trainers are part of the 'kids' age group, available in various children's UK sizes. They are designed for toddlers and younger children who need comfortable and durable footwear for active use.

Are these shoes true to size?

adidas sizing can vary slightly. It's recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the adidas size chart if possible. The lace-up design allows for some adjustability to achieve a secure fit.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the suede is durable, it's not inherently waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain can damage the material. We recommend applying a suede protector spray for better water resistance and avoiding very wet conditions.

Are these shoes comfortable for long periods?

Yes, they feature a cushioned fit and soft suede material, providing good comfort for children even during extended wear or active periods, ensuring their feet are supported.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser. Apply a suede protector regularly.

Shoes feel too loose or too tight on my child's foot

Ensure the laces are tied correctly – not too loose that the foot slips, nor too tight that it restricts movement. Re-evaluate the size against a foot measuring guide if discomfort persists, as children's feet grow quickly.

My child's laces keep coming undone

Teach your child to double-knot their laces. If they are too young, ensure an adult double-knots them. You can also look into 'no-tie' elastic laces if this is a frequent issue.

Shoes got wet and look stained/damaged

Stuff the shoes with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Consider applying a water-repellent spray after they dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, Stylish Design: The iconic Gazelle silhouette offers a timeless, cool look for kids.
  • Durable Construction: Soft suede upper and hard-wearing gum rubber soles are built to withstand active play.
  • Secure Fit: Lace fastening allows for a customizable and secure fit for different foot shapes.
  • Good Traction: Grippy rubber outsole helps prevent slips and provides stability.
  • Comfortable for Active Wear: Cushioned fit ensures comfort for energetic youngsters throughout the day.

Cons

  • Suede Care Required: The suede material needs specific cleaning and protection to maintain its appearance and longevity.
  • Lace-Up Only: May not be ideal for very young children who haven't learned to tie laces independently, potentially requiring adult assistance.
  • Limited Weather Resistance: Suede can be susceptible to water damage and staining, making them less suitable for very wet conditions without proper treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & First Use

Upon receiving your adidas Originals Gazelle trainers, simply unlace them sufficiently, allow your child to slip their foot in, and then securely tie the laces. Ensure the fit is snug but not too tight, leaving a small amount of wiggle room for toes. Double-knotting the laces can help prevent them from coming undone during active play.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: These trainers are designed specifically for kids.
  • Gender: They feature a unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls.
  • Sizing: Available in various UK kids' sizes, including 10, 11, 12, 13, 1, and 2, ensuring a good fit for different stages of childhood.
  • Style: The classic Gazelle series offers a timeless look that pairs well with casual wear, sportswear, and even smart-casual outfits.

Care & Maintenance

The suede material requires specific care to maintain its quality and appearance.

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider treating the suede with a suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning:
  • For dry dirt and scuffs, use a suede brush to gently brush off debris in one direction.
  • For tougher marks, a suede eraser (or a clean pencil eraser) can be used. Gently rub the affected area.
  • For wet stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain.
  1. Deep Cleaning: If a deeper clean is needed, use a specialized suede cleaner according to the product instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can stiffen or damage suede.
  3. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
  4. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry suede shoes, as this will damage the material and construction.
