FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas SL 72 OG generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.

Can I use these for running?

While inspired by track shoes, these are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for long-distance or high-intensity running.

What materials are used in these trainers?

The trainers feature high-quality leather and durable textile components consistent with the OG heritage line.

How do I clean the white or cream details?

Use a soft brush and mild soapy water to gently spot-clean the lighter sections without soaking the shoe.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The SL 72 OG has a slim, retro profile; those with wider feet may find it beneficial to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape of the trainer and minimize deep set creases.

Dirt buildup on cream-colored sections

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or mild soap solution on a soft brush to gently scrub the affected areas.

Laces becoming frayed

Replace with standard flat cotton laces to maintain the classic vintage look of the SL 72 series.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your SL 72 OG trainers in top condition, ensure you select the correct UK sizing, as the fit is standard for most adult foot shapes. When caring for your shoes, avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and use a gentle brush to remove dirt from the textured areas. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If the leather components get wet, air-dry them naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the material to crack.
