FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The SL 72 series generally fits true to size for most users, but as they are made of suede, they may stretch slightly over time to fit your foot shape.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, you should never machine wash suede trainers as it can cause irreparable damage to the material and shape of the shoe.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality suede, accented with a durable gum rubber outsole.

Are these suitable for heavy exercise?

These are lifestyle trainers. While comfortable, they lack the technical support and durability required for high-impact sports.

How do I remove water spots from the suede?

Gently pat the affected area with a dry cloth to absorb excess moisture, then let the shoe air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or worn down

Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material by brushing in one direction.

Outer sole loses traction

Check the tread for debris or buildup. Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

Visible dirt on suede

Allow the dirt to dry completely before brushing it off, then use a suede eraser for remaining marks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight feel with excellent underfoot cushioning
  • Versatile vintage-inspired style suitable for various casual outfits
  • Reliable traction provided by the gum rubber outsole
  • High-quality suede material offers a premium aesthetic

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining and requires specialized cleaning
  • Lacks the high-performance features found in dedicated sports-specific footwear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas SL 72 trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each wear. Never machine wash suede, as it can ruin the nap of the fabric.
  2. Stain Treatment: If you encounter stains, use a dry suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution applied sparingly with a soft cloth.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the multicolor pattern from fading.
  4. Moisture Protection: Consider applying a protective water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede to shield the material from unexpected moisture.
