FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing for trainers.
Can I use these for running?
These are lifestyle trainers based on vintage running silhouettes; they are not intended for serious athletic running.
How do I protect the animal print pattern?
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could wear down the embossed detailing.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
The leather is water-resistant to a degree but should not be considered waterproof for heavy rain.
What is the heel height?
The trainers feature a 2 cm sole height, providing a low-profile aesthetic.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles can typically be replaced with aftermarket orthotics if additional support is needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Leather naturally stretches slightly over time; wear them for short periods around the house to facilitate the break-in process.
Surface marks or scuffs on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp, soft cloth to gently buff out the scuff marks.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsoles are free of packed dirt or gravel which can block the rubber tread patterns.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adidas Originals SL 72 OG Trainers last, follow these care and setup steps:
- Initial Fit: Lace the shoes to your preferred tension before your first wear to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the leather. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid fully submerging the shoes in water to protect the leather grain.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the material to stiffen or fade over time.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for debris to maintain the integrity of the rubber grip.
