FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
No, the SL 72 RS Trainers are designed for casual wear and light training. They are not built to provide the specialized support and cushioning required for marathon running.
How do I know if the UK 12.5 size will fit me?
While this is a specific size, it's always recommended to try them on if possible. You can also compare with your current footwear or consult adidas sizing charts online, keeping in mind that individual fit can vary.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions is not recommended as it can affect the materials and comfort.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The exact materials can vary slightly by production batch, but the SL 72 series typically features a combination of synthetic materials and textiles for breathability and durability.
How should I clean the Brown and Grey colour combination?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid mixing cleaning solutions, and test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first to prevent discoloration.

Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
Wear the trainers with appropriate socks for a few hours each day to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe base. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting it. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole may also help.
Discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using mild soap and a damp, not wet, cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water. Always air dry away from direct sunlight.
