FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are ideal for casual running, recess activities, and light sports, but they are not designed for competitive long-distance or track racing.
Can these be put in a washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the structural integrity and the adhesive used in the construction.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
The Galaxy 8 features a standard supportive design suitable for everyday comfort, but they are not categorized as orthopedic footwear.
Are the laces standard or elastic?
The Galaxy 8 typically features standard laces, allowing for a customized and secure fit for the wearer.
How do I choose the correct size?
It is recommended to measure the child's foot while they are standing. Aim for about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made from textile and synthetic materials that are breathable but not waterproof. They may absorb water in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
The trainers feel tight after a long day
Feet can naturally swell during the day. Ensure laces are adjusted to accommodate comfort, and allow the shoes to fully air out overnight.
Accumulated dirt in the outsole tread
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the grip pattern on the bottom of the shoe.
Surface stains on the synthetic upper
Wipe with a soft damp cloth and mild soap; do not scrub aggressively to avoid damaging the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the adidas Galaxy 8 trainers, proper care is essential. Since the upper consists of a blend of textile and synthetic materials, it is recommended to spot-clean any surface dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the bonding agents and materials. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the shape or damage the synthetic components. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug fit to prevent excessive friction inside the shoe.
