FAQs
What makes the "Tech Indigo" colorway special?
The "Tech Indigo" colorway refers to a deep navy blue shade, offering a modern and subtle aesthetic, often complemented by other refined details like gold accents.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, blending retro style with everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the suede parts without damaging them?
Use a dedicated suede brush or a suede eraser for dry dirt and scuffs. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.
What does 'SPZL' stand for?
SPZL (pronounced 'Spezial') is a special collection from adidas that draws inspiration from authentic archival footwear, focusing on terrace culture and heritage designs.
How does the sizing run for these trainers?
Generally, adidas trainers run true to size. However, it is always recommended to consult the brand's specific size guide and consider trying them on if possible, especially as materials like leather can have a break-in period.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, the suede is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a water-repellent spray for added protection.
What is the difference between leather and suede care?
Leather can typically be wiped clean with a damp cloth and conditioned. Suede requires brushing and specialized cleaners to maintain its texture and color; it is more susceptible to water damage and staining.
Troubleshooting
Stiff leather or suede upon arrival
This is normal for new premium materials. Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in gradually. Conditioning the leather can also help soften it.
Discoloration on suede areas
Suede can be sensitive to moisture and friction. Use a suede eraser to gently remove scuffs and marks. Protect with a suede protector spray if exposed to potential staining.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
New outsoles can sometimes be slick. Lightly scuffing the soles on a rough surface or wearing them outdoors will help create better traction.
Laces becoming dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent. Alternatively, place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a delicate cycle. Ensure they are fully dry before re-lacing.
