Adidas Gazelle Halo Silver Green (PS): the suede classic your little one will want to wear right now

Why settle for basic black-and-white kids' sneakers when the original Gazelle comes in silver grey with green? The Adidas Gazelle Halo Silver Green (PS) bring the suede silhouette adidas turned into an icon to preschool sizes, with a fresh colorway that looks way more original in your feed than the usual basic.

The Adidas Gazelle Halo Silver Green (PS) are the kids' (preschool) version of the adidas Originals Gazelle: suede upper in Halo Silver grey, green 3-Stripes and details, Trefoil on the tongue and heel, OrthoLite insole and rubber outsole. It brings back the look of the 1991 edition in mini size.

History of the adidas Gazelle: from training shoe to icon

The Gazelle was born in the sixties as a training shoe and was one of the first adidas models to use suede, a material rarely seen in sport back then. It debuted in two versions: a red one with a translucent herringbone sole for indoor use and a blue one with a microcellular sole for training.

This kids' version, which some stores list as Gazelle C with style code JQ5999, is inspired by the 1991 edition. It keeps archive colors and nineties details, so it's not a chunky-sole reinterpretation. It's the Gazelle you know, in mini size.

Adidas Gazelle kids grey and green: meet the Halo Silver colorway

The official colorway is Halo Silver / Cloud White / Green. Halo Silver is a very light silvery grey that softens the suede, and the green marks the 3-Stripes and details. The result is a fresh contrast, less harsh than the classic black and white.

How do kids' adidas Gazelle fit?

The most common verdict is that the Gazelle fits true to size, but on the snug side, especially in the forefoot. For normal or narrow feet, your best bet is to order the usual size.

If your little one has wide feet or is in the middle of a growth spurt, many families prefer to go up half a size. Measure the foot standing and with a sock on. And remember: suede gives a little with wear, but it doesn't work miracles.

Frequently asked questions

Do kids' adidas Gazelle run big or small?+

adidas Gazelle usually fit true to size, but on the snug side, especially in the front of the foot. For normal or narrow feet, we recommend ordering the usual size. If the foot is wide or your child is growing fast, going up half a size usually gives more comfort.

What does (PS) mean in the Adidas Gazelle Halo Silver Green (PS)?+

PS stands for preschool, the size range designed for preschool and young kids, between baby sizes (TD) and youth sizes (GS). It's the same suede Gazelle with proportions adapted to a smaller foot, without changing the look of the original adidas Originals model.

What material are the Adidas Gazelle Halo Silver Green (PS) made of?+

The upper is Halo Silver suede with green 3-Stripes, the interior has a textile lining with a padded collar and a removable OrthoLite insole, and the outsole is rubber with a herringbone pattern. It's the same suede construction that has made the Gazelle famous since its origins as a training shoe.

How do you clean kids' suede Gazelle?+

It's best to brush the suede dry with a soft brush or a suede eraser and to avoid putting them in the washing machine or soaking them. If they get wet, let them air dry, away from radiators. A protective spray before the first wear helps the silver grey hold up better against stains and splashes.
