FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the SL 72 series has athletic roots, this model is designed for lifestyle and casual use rather than performance running.
How do I determine if they fit correctly?
The shoes should feel snug but not restrictive. You should have a small amount of space in the toe box for comfort.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the structure of the shoe. Use hand-cleaning methods instead.
Are the insoles removable?
Most adidas Originals trainers have removable insoles, allowing you to swap them out if you require specific orthotic support.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The SL 72 RS variant listed features a premium leather upper.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuffs
Use a leather-safe cleaner or a soft eraser designed for footwear to gently buff away minor marks.
Shoes feel tight after prolonged wear
Ensure the lace-up closure is adjusted for comfort; leather tends to naturally stretch slightly over time to fit the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your SL 72 RS trainers in peak condition, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or industrial detergents that can damage the leather finish.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Moisture: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help them retain their shape while air-drying. Do not place them directly on radiators or heat sources.
- Laces: Regularly check and wash laces separately in a mesh bag if they become soiled to maintain a clean overall appearance.
