FAQs
What is the primary material of the SL72 OG trainers?
The upper of these trainers is made from leather.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While they offer cushioning, the SL72 OG are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle, not for high-impact or specialized athletic training.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for leather and always test on an inconspicuous area first.
What does 'Cold Cement construction' mean?
Cold Cement construction is a method used to bond the sole to the upper of the shoe, known for its durability and ability to maintain the shoe's shape over time.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The leather upper is not inherently waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the leather and is not recommended.
What is the main design inspiration for this model?
The SL72 OG is inspired by the athletics tracks of the 1970s, adapted for modern casual footwear. This particular edition features seasonal, Valentine's Day-inspired design elements.
Where can I find other sizes or colorways?
Check the 'variant_siblings' information or consult the retailer's website for other available sizes and color options.
Troubleshooting
Laces becoming worn or dirty
Remove laces and hand wash with mild detergent, or replace with new laces for a fresh look.
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creases may naturally develop with wear. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather eraser. Avoid excessive bending.
Slight initial stiffness
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your foot shape.
