FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the SL 72 RS has roots in athletic design, they are currently intended for lifestyle and casual wear rather than modern long-distance running.

Do these trainers run true to size?

The adidas SL 72 RS typically follows standard adidas sizing, which is generally true to size for most adult men.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, it is highly recommended to avoid the washing machine as it can damage the materials and adhesive.

What materials are the shoes made of?

The construction features a mix of durable nylon and leather for a classic, high-quality look and feel.

Are these trainers water-resistant?

These shoes are not waterproof. They are designed for casual dry-weather use.

How do I maintain the leather parts?

Wipe leather components with a dry or slightly damp cloth. If necessary, use a leather-specific conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on white accents

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a soft cloth with mild dish soap and water to gently buff away surface stains.

Shoes feeling too tight

Ensure the laces are fully loosened before entry; if tightness persists, try adjusting the lacing pattern to provide more volume in the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. For maintenance, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap solution to gently wipe down the nylon and leather sections. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the shoe. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators, to prevent the material from cracking or warping.
