FAQs

What type of material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily made of premium leather.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Adidas SL 72 RS are inspired by running silhouettes but are designed for casual, everyday wear and comfort, not high-performance athletic activity.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly, and always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the main benefit of the midsole?

The lightweight foam midsole is designed to provide enhanced cushioning for improved comfort during daily wear.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The product information specifies colors such as Asphalt Blue, Cream White, and Sand Strata. Please check other listings or the brand's official site for the full range of available colors.

What does 'RS' stand for in SL 72 RS?

While not explicitly stated, 'RS' often denotes a modern reinterpretation or update of an original model, incorporating contemporary materials or cushioning technologies.

Is the sockliner removable?

The product description mentions a synthetic sockliner for comfort. It is typically integrated and not designed for easy removal.

Troubleshooting

Color appears different from online photos.

Colors may vary slightly due to differences in lighting and display device settings. Refer to the product description for color names like 'Asphalt Blue', 'Cream White', and 'Sand Strata'.

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure the laces are loosened before putting on the shoes. The lace-up closure allows for adjustment. If still tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in is needed for the leather.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides grip, but performance can vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole tread is clean and free from obstructions.
