FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
The adidas Gazelle trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer comfort for everyday activities but are not intended for high-impact sports or running due to their construction.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas or the retailer. The Gazelle trainers are generally true to size, but it's recommended to try them on if possible for the best fit.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. Please check the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty details and terms.
How can I restore the shine to the leather?

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Troubleshooting
Leather scuffs or marks easily.
Clean gently with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and follow with a leather conditioner. A leather protector spray can help prevent future marks.
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones that offer better grip.
Soles appear dirty and difficult to clean.
Use a soft brush with warm water and mild soap to scrub the rubber soles. For ingrained dirt, a non-abrasive cleaning paste can be effective. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
General wear and tear affecting appearance.
Regular cleaning and conditioning of the leather will help maintain the shoe's appearance. Address minor issues promptly to prevent them from worsening.
