FAQs
How should I clean my adidas Superstar sneakers?
The experience of unboxing a new pair of adidas Superstar sneakers is a special feeling for every sneakerhead. Extend the box-fresh smell and look by keeping your Superstars from adidas clean and fresh at all times.
Start cleaning your adidas Superstars by carefully brushing off dirt particles from the upper and sole area. Dab the shoe with a cloth dipped in a soap and water mixture to remove any harsh stains. For the laces, simply rinse them in a mix of soap and water. If your laces have tears and rips on them, we suggest you get a new pair of laces to match your sneakers.
Once you’re done cleaning and rinsing your Superstars from adidas, let them air dry. In case you feel there is any residual odour, sprinkle a small amount of baking soda on the inner sole — this will help soak in any unnecessary odours, leaving your sneakers smelling fresh and ready to wear again.
And no, adidas Superstars can’t go in the washing machine or dryer. The hard-shell sneakers are not meant for machine cleaning, tumble drying or bleaching agents. Using any of these methods will permanently ruin your adidas Superstars.
