Description
The adidas BW Army Lux White Gum reinterprets the classic German Army Trainer with a modern twist, using premium cracked white leather for the upper paired with beige suede overlays. This combination delivers a fresh, clean look with a vintage-inspired feel that balances rugged heritage and urban style. The minimalist design features smooth leather elements on the tongue and heel, accompanied by a gum rubber sole renowned for durability and traction.
The sneaker draws from the military training shoes first made in the 1970s and popularized in fashion through collaborations with Maison Margiela. The tan leather sockliner and subtle embossed branding add refined details, making this a versatile shoe for both casual and sophisticated wear. The low-profile silhouette ensures comfort, support, and timeless appeal.
Released in April 2025, the BW Army Lux White Gum marks the return of a highly sought-after model, blending tradition with contemporary design.
Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.
- General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.
- Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
