FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The SL72 has a classic, streamlined fit; individuals with wider feet may find them snug and might prefer sizing up slightly.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can cause permanent damage to the suede and leather components. Always clean by hand.

Does the brown colour fade?

Like all dyed materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can fade the colour. Store in a shaded place.

Is this a running shoe?

While the SL72 originated as a running shoe in 1972, the modern version is intended for lifestyle and casual use.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily of lightweight nylon, complemented by suede and leather accents.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe box

Natural creasing is expected with nylon and leather materials; use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain shape.

Dirt stuck in suede overlays

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt from the nap without damaging the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable materials
  • Timeless, versatile retro aesthetic
  • Comfortable cushioning via EVA midsole
  • High-quality suede and leather detailing

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-intensity athletic running
  • Low-profile silhouette offers minimal arch support
  • Nylon material requires careful cleaning to avoid damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are ready-to-wear trainers, there is no assembly required; ensure you select the correct UK sizing for an optimal fit. To maintain the condition of your trainers, it is recommended to spot clean the nylon and suede surfaces using a soft brush or a mild cloth dampened with water. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the integrity of the suede overlays and the adhesive bonds. Store them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the brown colouration from fading over time.
