Pros: Classic, retro Adidas look for CASUAL wear.

The Bottom Line: Wear Gazelles if you're going for the look, not the goal.
ucsdsoccer's Full Review: Adidas Gazelle
For some reason, a lot of people think that these are soccer shoes. THEY ARE NOT! These are for casual wear and are marketed as so by Adidas. The shoes are not designed for indoor play and will respond so if tested. The rubber outsole will fall apart and the seams will rip if you try to play soccer in these boats. As a "casual shoe", Gazelles are classic icons of soccer that cannot be replaced. No other "casual shoe" screams out to the public that you are a soccer freak. As a normal shoe, they do not rate very highly though. Gazelles are uncomfortable and heavy. The materials do not conform to the foot and really only serve one purpose. Wear them to make the statement, "I play soccer". Just don't wear them for comfort or actual play on any surface.
