FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While the Boost technology offers excellent cushioning, these 'Chinese New Year' edition trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For marathon running, dedicated running shoes with specific performance features are recommended.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the adidas sizing chart. If possible, try them on in-store. Given they are unisex, UK men's and women's sizing may differ, so refer to the specific conversion if needed.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the leather, the Boost midsole, and the adhesives. Hand wash using the care instructions provided.
What does 'DNA' mean in the product name?
'DNA' typically signifies that the shoe is a reimagined or updated version of an original iconic design, bringing modern technology and aesthetics to a classic silhouette.
How is the 'Chinese New Year' theme incorporated?
The theme is usually represented through specific colorways, subtle graphic details, or unique embellishments that celebrate the cultural significance of the Chinese New Year.
Is the red accent color permanent?
The red color is part of the shoe's design and construction. It is not a temporary feature and is designed to be durable.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper primarily features premium leather, contributing to its durability and refined appearance.
Troubleshooting
Tight fit upon initial wear
Leather can stretch slightly over time. Wear them for short periods initially or use a shoe stretcher if needed. Ensure you have the correct size for your foot.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the tongue and laces, or inside the shoe. Try adjusting the lacing or using a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe.
Discoloration on leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. For color transfer, ensure socks are colorfast.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness
The Boost foam is designed for long-term performance but can be affected by extreme temperatures. Ensure shoes are stored properly and allow them to recover from intense conditions.

Designed as unisex adult trainers, these are compatible with casual wear. They pair well with jeans, shorts, joggers, and other casual attire. While they offer comfort for light activity, they are not specialized for high-impact sports.
Care:
- Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: A brush and mild soap solution can be used to clean the Boost midsole and rubber outsole. Rinse with a damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
