FAQs
Are the adidas SL 72 trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing. If you have worn adidas trainers before, you can likely choose your usual size.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather upper and weaken the adhesive holding the sole to the body.
Is this model suitable for wide feet?
The SL 72 has a relatively slim profile. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the fit quite snug.
What is the primary material used?
The shoes feature a durable leather upper construction for a classic look and feel.
Are these shoes good for running?
While they are inspired by vintage running designs, they are intended for lifestyle and casual use today, not for modern athletic training.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows signs of scuffing
Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor surface marks.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure they are tightened evenly across the eyelets and consider a double knot if walking for extended periods.
Interior feels damp from sweat
Remove the insoles to allow them to air dry separately and ensure the shoes are kept in a well-ventilated area between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers come pre-laced; simply adjust the tension for your preferred fit upon arrival.
Compatibility: The SL 72 is a standard adult fit. It is recommended to choose your typical size in adidas footwear to ensure proper arch and toe alignment.
Care: To keep the leather in top condition, wipe down the exterior with a soft, dry cloth after use. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air-dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape. Avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
