FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

The Adidas SL 72 RS Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good traction for walking, they are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

How do I clean the leather and suede parts?

Use a damp cloth for the leather and a suede brush for the suede. Specialized leather and suede cleaners can be used cautiously for tougher stains. Always air dry.

What is the main difference from the original SL 72?

The SL 72 RS model features a thicker midsole and a reshaped upper for enhanced modern comfort, while retaining the original's retro aesthetic.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Generally, the Adidas SL 72 RS Trainers are reported to run true to size. It is recommended to check customer reviews or try them on if possible.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, suede, and internal structure of the shoe.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these?

Depending on fit preference, both thin and medium-thickness socks can be worn. For a snugger fit, thinner socks are recommended.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from leather with suede overlays.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and ensure they are evenly distributed. Consider wearing them with thinner socks initially. If persistent, the shoes may be a half-size too small.

Scuff marks on leather

Use a leather cleaner or a magic eraser gently on the affected area. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit in a matching white shade might be needed.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, a suede eraser can be effective.

Outsole losing grip

Clean the outsole thoroughly with soap and water to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be reducing traction.
