Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While originally inspired by 1972 running silhouettes, these are designed as lifestyle sneakers and are not recommended for long-distance or high-impact running.
How do I maintain the metallic finish?
Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could strip the metallic silver coating. Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
Are the insoles removable?
The insoles are generally fixed, but they can accommodate thin, custom orthotic inserts if necessary.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, the SL 72 series generally fits true to standard UK sizes.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the leather offers some protection, the shoe features textile panels that are not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the material quality.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface scuffs.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double knot for a more secure hold.
Build up of dirt in the sole grooves
Use a dedicated shoe brush or an old toothbrush to dislodge debris after outdoor use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas SL 72 Trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Adjustment: Utilize the classic lacing system to distribute tension evenly across the midfoot. Do not overtighten, as this can affect the leather.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the textile panels. For the leather sections, wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the metallic finish from fading or cracking.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit true to UK sizing. They pair best with casual trousers, jeans, or athletic-inspired athleisure wear.
