FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas SL 72 RS trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. While they offer comfort and support for walking, they are not specifically engineered for performance running and may lack the advanced cushioning and support required for such activities.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary. Pay attention to the UK sizing provided.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and potential damage to the materials. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What is the main difference between the SL 72 and SL 72 RS?

The SL 72 RS is a modern interpretation of the original SL 72. It typically offers updated materials and construction for improved comfort and durability while maintaining the iconic retro aesthetic of the original.

What other colours are available for the SL 72 RS?

The SL 72 RS is available in various colourways, including options with yellow accents, depending on the specific model and retailer. Please check product listings for current availability.

How long do the laces typically last?

Lace durability varies based on wear and tear. With regular wear and proper care, laces can last for a considerable time. If they show signs of fraying or breaking, they can be easily replaced.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. If the issue persists, consider a larger size or an alternative model known for a wider fit. Some users find wearing them for short periods helps to break them in.

Discoloration on the material

For light dirt, use a damp cloth. For stains, try a mild soap solution with a soft brush, focusing on the affected area. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous spot first.

Laces are fraying

Replace the laces with a new pair. Ensure the replacement laces are of a similar length and material for optimal fit and durability.
