FAQs
Are the adidas SL 72 OG shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit according to standard sizing, though the low-profile design may feel slightly snug for those with wider feet.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the metallic leather and the adhesive bonding the sole.
Are these suitable for running?
While they are based on historic running designs, they lack the advanced cushioning and support found in modern performance running footwear.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from premium metallic leather with additional leather details on the 3-Stripes and heel tab.
Are these shoes unisex?
The SL 72 OG is available in various sizes for adults, though individual listings may be categorized by gender based on regional sizing standards.
What is the significance of the Trefoil logo on this shoe?
The SL 72 was the first adidas shoe to feature the Trefoil logo, marking a significant milestone in the brand's history at a major sporting event.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep creases.
Dirty outsole
Wipe the rubber edges with a magic eraser or a cloth dipped in a mixture of water and gentle dish soap.
Laces coming undone
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking the aglets for damage; replace laces with standard flat versions if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the leather components, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the metallic finish.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the metallic leather from fading or cracking.
- Lacing: The classic lace closure allows for a customizable fit. Ensure the laces are tightened properly to prevent heel slippage.
- Compatibility: The neutral beige colorway makes these shoes highly compatible with most casual wardrobes, including earth-toned outfits and denim.
