FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe. Spot cleaning is recommended.

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

They provide standard support through the EVA midsole, but if you require specialized orthotic support, you may need to insert aftermarket insoles.

Can I wear these for heavy running?

While based on running heritage, these are lifestyle trainers. They are best suited for walking and daily activities rather than long-distance athletic training.

How do I protect the suede from water?

It is recommended to apply a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first use.

Are these true to size?

Yes, the SL 72 RS typically fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or flat

Use a soft suede brush to gently stroke the material in one direction to restore the nap.

Surface dirt on the midsole

Wipe the EVA midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry immediately with a clean towel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adidas SL 72 RS trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of suede, avoid exposing the shoes to rain or heavy moisture. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and keep the nap looking fresh. If you encounter a minor stain, use a suede eraser rather than liquid cleaners. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. The trainers are true to size; for the best fit, pair them with standard athletic or low-cut socks.
