Product Information

Full details

The adidas SL 72 Trainers are designed for adults seeking a versatile, retro-inspired shoe that bridges the gap between athletic heritage and everyday comfort. Featuring a lightweight nylon and suede construction, they provide excellent breathability and support for daily wear, though the vintage-focused design may offer less arch support than modern high-performance technical running gear.

FAQs

Are the adidas SL 72 suitable for long-distance running?

While originally designed as running shoes, modern technology has surpassed them. These are best used for lifestyle, casual walking, and everyday wear.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede and leather components. Stick to hand-cleaning techniques.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer a half-size up for extra room.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is primarily made from nylon, complemented by suede and leather overlays for support and style.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No, the nylon and suede materials are breathable and will absorb moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede overlays

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift and remove dry dirt without damaging the nap.

Creasing at the toe box

This is normal for leather and suede materials. Use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the original shape.

Odors after frequent wear

Remove the insoles to air out and use an odor-neutralizing spray safe for footwear fabrics.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight for all-day comfort
  • Highly breathable materials prevent overheating
  • Stylish, timeless retro aesthetic
  • Cushioned EVA midsole for impact absorption

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity competitive running
  • Suede requires careful cleaning to maintain appearance
  • Provides moderate rather than heavy arch support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your SL 72s remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper contains suede, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the suede and leather accents. For the nylon portions, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used to spot-clean. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials over time.
