Using your Adidas SL 72 Trainers is straightforward. Simply loosen the laces, slide your foot in, and adjust the lacing for a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure your heel is seated firmly against the back of the shoe.
These trainers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair well with:
Denim: Classic blue or black jeans.

Shorts: Ideal for warmer weather, maintaining a clean aesthetic.
Casual Dresses/Skirts: For a comfortable, sporty-chic contrast.
Given the premium suede upper, proper care is crucial to maintain their appearance and longevity.
Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protective spray to repel water and stains. Reapply periodically as directed by the spray manufacturer.
Regular Cleaning:
Use a suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
For scuffs or marks, use a suede eraser (or a clean pencil eraser) with gentle, short strokes.
For deeper stains, use a suede cleaner solution specifically designed for suede and nubuck. Follow the product instructions carefully, typically applying with a clean cloth and then brushing the nap after drying.
Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the suede.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge in water. Avoid harsh chemicals or stiff brushes not designed for suede.
