FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, while they feature cushioning, the SL 72 PT is designed as a casual lifestyle trainer rather than a performance running shoe.
How do I determine the correct size?
This model is sized in UK adult measurements. We recommend comparing your foot length to the standard adidas size chart.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather upper and the adhesives used in the sole. Always clean by hand.
What material is the upper made from?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather.
Does this model come in other colors?
Yes, the SL 72 PT series is available in several colorways, including Black and White combinations.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its luster
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Shoes feel too tight initially
Loosen the laces significantly to allow the leather to flex and adapt to your foot shape over the first few wears.
Accumulation of debris in the outsole grooves
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge rocks or dirt from the traction pattern to maintain grip.
Pros and Cons

- Provides reliable traction with a non-slip outsole

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your SL 72 PT trainers remain in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: The leather upper may feel slightly stiff initially but will soften with regular wear.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the leather. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner and a damp cloth, then allow to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the leather from cracking. Avoid leaving them in damp conditions.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adidas adult sizing. Ensure you check your specific UK size before purchase as they are sold as a fixed variant (Size 6 UK for this model).
