Product Information
Full details
The adidas Continental 80 is designed for adults seeking a timeless, retro-inspired aesthetic suitable for casual everyday wear. Drawing inspiration from 1980s indoor court footwear, these trainers provide a versatile look with their signature side webbing and leather construction; however, users should note that as a classic court-style shoe, they prioritize heritage design over the advanced high-impact cushioning found in modern performance athletic gear.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Most users find the Continental 80 fits true to size, though the leather structure may feel snug initially.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to clean them by hand to preserve the integrity of the leather and the adhesives.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The silhouette is relatively slim; individuals with wide feet might find a half-size larger more comfortable.
Does the leather stretch over time?
Yes, like most leather footwear, the material will gradually soften and mold to your foot shape with regular wear.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes, the rubber cupsole is designed to be non-marking, making them suitable for indoor court surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing at the toe box
This is common with leather footwear. Use a shoe tree when not wearing to help maintain the shape.
White material becoming scuffed
Use a specialized white leather polish or a gentle eraser tool specifically designed for sneaker surfaces.
Footbed feels too firm
Consider inserting an aftermarket ergonomic insole if you require additional arch support or extra cushioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Continental 80s last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps.

- Stain Removal: For scuffs, use a mild leather cleaner or a soft-bristled brush with soapy water, taking care not to soak the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or discoloration of the white finish.
- Compatibility: These shoes pair well with denim, chinos, or athletic joggers, making them a staple for casual wardrobes.
