FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities or sports?

While the Gazelle Indoor has its origins as a 1970s training shoe, this reissue is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For modern athletic activities, specialized sports footwear would be more appropriate.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes feature a regular fit. It is generally recommended to select your standard Adidas shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying both to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

The suede upper is not inherently water-resistant. It is advisable to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent water damage and staining. Applying a suede protector spray can offer some protection against light moisture.

What is the Leather Working Group (LWG)?

The Leather Working Group is a global multi-stakeholder community committed to driving responsible practices across the leather supply chain. Sourcing LWG-certified leather indicates a commitment to environmental best practices in leather manufacturing.

How do I clean the translucent gum sole?

The gum rubber outsole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used. Ensure no harsh chemicals come into contact with the suede upper.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective.

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for your foot. These shoes have a regular fit, so consistent sizing usually applies. Consider using thinner or thicker socks if minor adjustments are needed.

Suede has water spots or stains

Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently buff away the water mark. For persistent stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for spots may be necessary, applied sparingly.

Care Instructions for Suede

The suede upper requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity. Follow these guidelines for optimal product care:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush (often with both wire and rubber bristles) to gently brush off dirt and restore the nap (the soft, raised fibers) of the suede. Brush in one direction.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For small stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a specialized suede cleaner. Blot, do not rub, to avoid spreading the stain or damaging the nap.
  4. Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, as heat can stiffen and damage suede.
  5. Storage: Store your Gazelles in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid: Do not machine wash or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can severely damage the suede.
