FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, the Adidas SL 72 OG is a lifestyle trainer designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance running, rigorous sports, or intensive athletic activities.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is crafted from a combination of premium leather and hairy suede overlays, providing both durability and a distinct textural aesthetic.
How do I clean my SL 72 OG trainers?
For suede, use a soft brush and suede eraser/cleaner. For leather, wipe with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Clean the EVA midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry away from heat.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. While the materials offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed to be submerged or worn in heavy rain. Consider using a protective spray for enhanced water repellency.
How does the sizing run for the Adidas SL 72 OG?
Adidas sizing generally runs true to size. It's recommended to select your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing specific Adidas size charts or trying them on for the best fit.
What is the primary benefit of the EVA midsole?
The EVA Midsole provides lightweight cushioning and effective shock absorption, contributing significantly to the trainers' all-day comfort and reducing foot fatigue.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Use the lace-up closure to adjust the fit. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or lacing technique. A general rule is to have a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the shoe's end.
Suede looks matted or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap. For dirt, use a suede eraser. If stained, a suede cleaner can be applied sparingly. Always brush in one direction.
Leather appears scuffed or dull.
For light scuffs, a leather conditioner or polish in a matching color can help. For general dullness, clean with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner, then condition.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole provides good traction, extreme wet or icy conditions can still pose a slip risk. Exercise caution in such environments. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris that might reduce grip.
Unpleasant odor from inside the trainers.
Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside overnight. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry after wear.
