The product description suggests buying one size larger than your usual size for this model. It's recommended to follow this advice or check sizing charts carefully.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of leather, providing a premium look and feel.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush, then allow to air dry.

Are these suitable for athletic activities?

What type of cushioning is used?

The shoes feature a Cloudfoam midsole, designed to provide soft and lightweight cushioning for enhanced comfort.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole provides some grip, they are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather.

What other color options are available?

The adidas Advantage series comes in various colorways, including other white options with different accent colors like green and blue, as well as grey variations.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight despite correct size

Try loosening the laces and wearing them for short periods. Consider the recommendation to buy one size larger for a more relaxed fit.

Leather creasing excessively

Some creasing is normal with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize excessive strain. Use shoe trees for storage to help maintain shape.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole offers good traction on dry surfaces. Exercise caution on wet or slippery conditions as with most casual footwear.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure the lacing is adjusted for optimal comfort. The Cloudfoam midsole provides cushioning, but individual comfort can vary. Break-in period might be necessary.
