FAQs

Are these trainers waterproof?

They feature an Aditex weatherproof membrane that provides significant resistance to rain and moisture, though they are not fully submersible waterproof footwear.

How do I clean the leather?

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe down the surface. Avoid harsh detergents and always allow the shoes to air dry away from heat.

Can I use these for running?

While comfortable for walking, these are designed as lifestyle trainers and do not provide the specialized support or stability required for professional running.

What is the sizing fit?

The SL 72 RS series is reshaped for an improved fit compared to the original, generally running true to standard adult UK sizing.

Do I need to treat the leather before wearing?

Yes, applying a leather protectant spray is recommended to shield the Olive Strata leather from water stains and dirt.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or loses its shine

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

Minor scuffs on the leather surface

Use a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of leather cleaner to gently buff out marks.

Reduced traction in wet conditions

Check the serrated rubber outsole for trapped debris or mud that might be obstructing the grip pattern.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Weatherproof construction via Aditex membrane
  • Lightweight design suitable for long-term wear
  • Timeless vintage aesthetic with modern materials
  • Reliable traction on standard urban surfaces
  • High-quality leather finish

Cons

  • Leather material is more sensitive to scuffs than synthetic alternatives
  • Limited weather resistance compared to dedicated hiking footwear
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance or long-distance running

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your leather SL 72 RS trainers, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack. Because these feature genuine leather uppers, it is recommended to apply a leather-specific protector spray before your first wear. If the shoes become dirty, gently wipe the Olive Strata leather with a soft, damp cloth and let them air dry naturally. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals that could compromise the Aditex membrane or the leather finish.
