FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While originally designed as running shoes in 1972, this modern reinterpretation is intended for lifestyle and casual wear, not for serious athletic training.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of leather and textile materials.

How should I clean the metallic silver finish?

Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could strip the metallic color.

Does the sizing run large or small?

The SL 72 generally fits true to size. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit for casual trainers.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the metallic finish. Always hand clean these trainers.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe box

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Dirt on metallic finish

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to buff away surface dust. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner sparingly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

  1. Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather and textile to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather sections with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized sneaker cleaner for the textile areas to avoid damaging the silver finish. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the metallic color from fading or the leather from drying out.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard sizing, though it is recommended to verify your measurement against the UK size 7.5 standard to ensure a proper fit.
