FAQs

Are the adidas SL 72 true to size?

Yes, most users find that these trainers fit true to their standard UK shoe size.

Can these be used for heavy running?

While the SL 72 was originally a running shoe, it is currently categorized as a lifestyle sneaker. It is best suited for walking and casual use rather than high-impact athletic training.

How do I clean the animal print pattern?

Gently wipe the patterned areas with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could strip the color or damage the material.

Is the leather upper waterproof?

The leather is not waterproof. We recommend using a protective spray to make the surface water-resistant.

Do these shoes provide good arch support?

They offer moderate arch support suitable for daily wear, though they are not designed for individuals requiring intense corrective arch support.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or loses its shine

Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to nourish the material and restore its natural appearance.

Shoes feel tight after long periods of wear

Feet naturally swell throughout the day; ensure laces are not tied too tightly in the morning to allow for expansion.

Creasing appears on the toe box

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structural integrity and shape of the leather upper.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas SL 72 trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove surface dust. For deep cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a damp cloth.
  2. Moisture Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray formulated for leather to protect against stains and light rain.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the leather.
  4. Insoles: If you require specific orthopedic support, the factory insoles are generally removable to accommodate custom orthotics.
