FAQs

Are the SL 72 RS trainers waterproof?

They feature an Aditex membrane designed for weather resistance, providing protection against light rain and moisture, though they are not fully submersible.

How do I determine my size?

The SL 72 RS follows standard adult UK sizing; if you typically wear a UK 10.5 in adidas Originals, the same size is recommended for this model.

Can I use these for running?

While inspired by the original super-light running shoe, this version is designed primarily for casual, everyday lifestyle wear rather than intensive athletic training.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust and debris. Avoid soaking the leather to maintain its integrity.

Does the padded collar offer good ankle support?

Yes, the padded collar is designed to cradle the ankle area, providing a secure fit and reducing fatigue during daily activities.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the leather retain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Slippage in the heel

Adjust the lacing system to use the top eyelet (runner's loop) to secure the heel more firmly against the padded collar.

Water spots on leather

Wipe gently with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and allow to dry completely; avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your SL 72 RS trainers maintain their shape and weather resistance, follow these maintenance guidelines:

Fit Adjustment: Utilize the classic lace-up system to achieve your preferred tension. Ensure the tongue is centered to prevent friction.
Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For leather care, apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent cracking.
Moisture Control: If the shoes become saturated, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to maintain the structure of the collar and upper.
