FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer a wider fit, some users suggest going up half a size.
Can these be used for gym training?
While suitable for light activity, they are lifestyle shoes and do not provide the stability required for heavy weightlifting or high-impact training.
How do I keep the black and blue colors bright?
Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays, which can cause fading over time. Clean promptly if they get wet.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding wear in heavy rain to protect the materials.
What is the best way to lace these for comfort?
A standard cross-lacing pattern is best, ensuring the pressure is distributed evenly across the midfoot.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or consider replacing the laces with a slightly more textured set if you find them slippery.
Creasing at the toe box
This is normal for trainers with synthetic or leather panels. Use shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help retain their original shape.
Scuff marks on the sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of rubbing alcohol to gently remove scuffs from the midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Out of the box, the adidas SL72 RS trainers require minimal setup; simply adjust the laces to your preferred tension for a secure fit. To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth after use to prevent staining.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the colors and materials.
- Avoid Machine Washing: To prevent damage to the structural adhesives, avoid putting these shoes in the washing machine. If they become heavily soiled, use a gentle brush with a mild soap solution.
- Air Dry: If the inner lining becomes damp, remove the insoles and allow them to air dry at room temperature.
