FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the SL 72 RS is designed to follow standard sizing, but the reshaped fit provides a slightly more generous feel in the toe box compared to the original model.

Can I use these for running?

While based on a heritage runner, these are primarily lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for long-distance running or professional athletic performance.

How do I clean the leather?

Use a gentle leather cleaner and a soft cloth, then follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

What is the primary material?

The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality leather for a durable and classic look.

Does the padded collar provide ankle support?

Yes, the padded collar is designed to offer additional comfort and slight structural support around the ankle area during daily movement.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming loose

Ensure a double knot is used if the laces are new and stiff, or replace them with cotton-based laces for better friction.

Creasing on the leather

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and reduce natural stress lines.

Outsole collecting debris

Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear out pebbles or dirt from the serrated patterns in the rubber outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers utilize a standard lace-up system that allows you to customize the tension across the midfoot. For best care results, treat the leather upper with a leather-specific protector spray before your first use to prevent staining. When cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth to wipe away debris. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive components. If they become wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent cracking.
