While the SL 72 was originally a running shoe, this retro-inspired version is best suited for casual, everyday wear and light activity due to its design focus on comfort and style rather than modern athletic performance.
The product is listed in UK adult sizes. We recommend referring to adidas' official sizing guide, measuring your foot length, and comparing it to their chart for the most accurate fit. It's often best to try them on if possible.
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and leather accents, and compromise the shoe's structure. Please follow the manual spot-cleaning care instructions provided in this guide.
EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate, which is a lightweight, flexible, and cushioned material commonly used in midsoles to provide shock absorption and comfort during walking and standing.
Like any footwear, the silver color can show signs of wear over time. The nylon upper is relatively durable, but the leather accents might be more susceptible to minor scuffs. Regular gentle cleaning and proper storage can help maintain the color and finish.
Yes, the adidas SL 72 features a nylon upper which is known for its breathability, allowing for good airflow to help keep your feet cool and comfortable throughout the day.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing to be looser, especially across the instep. Wear thin socks initially to break them in, as materials may soften with use.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction to remove surface dirt and restore its texture. For deeper stains, use a suede eraser or specialized cleaner.
Clean the nylon and leather sections with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive shoe cleaner. Avoid abrasive sponges that could scratch the silver finish. Regular cleaning prevents buildup that can dull the appearance.
Check if the insole is properly seated; sometimes a loose insole can cause squeaking. You can try removing the insole, applying a small amount of talcum powder underneath, and then reinserting it. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the outsole, which usually resolves with wear.
Allow your shoes to air out thoroughly between wears. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes when not in use. Ensure socks are clean and breathable to minimize moisture.
Using your adidas SL 72 trainers is straightforward: simply put them on your feet, ensuring a comfortable fit. Laces should be tied securely but not too tightly, allowing for natural foot movement.
These trainers are designed for adults and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are perfect for complementing streetwear, casual smart outfits, and athleisure looks. Their retro design makes them a versatile addition to any wardrobe, suitable for various seasons.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your SL 72 trainers:
