FAQs
Are the SL 72 OG trainers suitable for running?
The SL 72 OG trainers are designed with a retro aesthetic and focus on everyday comfort. While they offer good support for casual wear, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running like modern athletic shoes.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. It is often recommended to try them on if possible, or consider your usual sneaker size. The product description mentions a UK size 6 for this specific listing.
What materials are the SL 72 OG trainers made from?
The specific materials can vary slightly by production batch, but typically feature a combination of leather and other durable textiles common in retro trainer designs.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and discomfort.
How often should I clean my SL 72 OG trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, based on wear and dirt accumulation. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance. Avoid excessive cleaning to preserve the materials.
What is the difference between SL 72 and SL 72 OG?
The 'OG' typically denotes an 'Original' or retro reissue of a classic model, aiming to replicate the design and feel of the original SL 72 from its debut era, often with updated comfort features.
Troubleshooting
Initial stiffness or discomfort
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size and width for your feet.
Colour transfer from darker materials
Be mindful of wearing dark socks with lighter-coloured trainers, especially when new. Consider using a protective spray suitable for the trainer's materials.
Sole becoming detached
If the sole detaches, consult a professional shoe repair service. For manufacturing defects within the warranty period, contact the retailer.
