FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the SL 72 RS is designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than technical running.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

The SL 72 RS fits true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the best way to maintain the material integrity.

Is the material waterproof?

No, these trainers are not waterproof. We advise avoiding heavy rain to protect the materials.

Does this model come in other colors?

Yes, the SL 72 RS series is available in various colorways, including blue, white, and other combinations.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe area

This is common with casual trainers; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape.

Outer material getting dirty

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning kit or a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water to gently spot-clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, it is important to keep them clean. Remove surface dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the materials. For long-term storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading. These trainers are standard UK sizes and generally fit true to size, allowing them to pair well with standard athletic socks.
