How should I clean the exterior?

Use a damp, soft cloth with mild soap for surface cleaning. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners.

Are these trainers water-resistant?

They are not specifically treated for water resistance. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Can the insoles be removed?

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your SL 72 Rs trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Sizing: Always verify your UK shoe size before purchase as fit can vary slightly between models.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the exterior. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution on a damp cloth, avoiding complete immersion in water.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping or adhesive degradation.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent premature wear of the materials.
