FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adidas sizing; however, since they are low-profile, some users prefer a half-size up for a looser fit.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
No, these are fashion trainers inspired by vintage running shoes and lack the modern technical features required for professional long-distance running.
What is the best way to protect the suede?
Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede to help prevent liquid stains and moisture penetration.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the suede upper is absorbent. It is recommended to avoid wearing these during heavy rainfall.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
Do not machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can ruin the suede material and loosen adhesives.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft brush to gently buff out the scuffs in the direction of the material grain.
Dirty outsoles
Wipe the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap, ensuring you avoid the suede upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas SL 72 OG trainers last, keep them clean and dry. Avoid excessive exposure to rain or mud, as water and dirt can permanently damage the suede texture. If cleaning is necessary, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift surface debris. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the animal print pattern.
