FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The SL 72 RS features proprietary Aditex membrane technology, which provides significant weather resistance against rain and damp conditions, though they are not fully submersible waterproof boots.

How do I clean the leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for daily cleaning. For more thorough maintenance, use a mild leather-safe cleaner and follow up with a leather conditioner.

Are these suitable for sports?

While these are inspired by athletic heritage, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for casual, everyday wear rather than high-impact performance sports.

What is the difference between the SL 72 and the SL 72 RS?

The RS (Reshaped) version features an improved fit profile and the integration of the Aditex membrane for weatherproofing that the standard SL 72 model lacks.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can damage the leather upper and compromise the Aditex membrane. Always clean by hand.

Troubleshooting

Outer leather showing signs of water spots

Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.

Loss of traction on smooth indoor floors

Clean the serrated rubber outsole with a stiff brush to remove any trapped debris or dust that may cause slipping.

Creasing in the leather toe box

Use wooden or plastic shoe trees when the trainers are not being worn to help maintain their original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, begin by ensuring the correct UK size fit before the first use. Since the upper is made of premium leather, avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. Regularly wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For the leather, use a reputable leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying and cracking. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant green and black colour scheme. If the shoes become soaked, air dry them naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather and membrane.
