adidas Originals SL 72 OG - Animal Print - Brown - UK 4

While the SL 72 design originates from a 70s running shoe, this specific Animal Print version is retooled as a fashion trainer and is not recommended for performance running or intense athletic activities. It's best suited for casual wear.

Gently brush off loose dirt. For spots, dab lightly with a very slightly damp cloth and mild soap, moving in the direction of the hair. Do not saturate, and allow to air dry completely.

The upper features a blend of textile (pony hair with leopard print) and leather. They include an EVA midsole, textile lining, and a rubber outsole.

The adidas Originals SL 72 OG typically runs true to size with a regular fit. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size.

It is not recommended to wear these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. The pony hair material can be sensitive to prolonged moisture exposure and may be difficult to clean if soiled with mud or water stains.

Their comfort comes from the lightweight EVA midsole, which provides cushioning support, and the soft textile lining, which offers a comfortable interior feel.

With proper care and by avoiding harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight, the animal print is designed to retain its vibrancy. Regular gentle cleaning and appropriate storage will help preserve its appearance.

Gently brush the pony hair in the direction of the nap with a soft-bristled brush to restore its texture and sheen. Avoid excessive rubbing.

Like many new shoes, a short break-in period may be necessary. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot.

Check the rubber outsole for any embedded dirt or debris. Clean the tread pattern thoroughly with a damp cloth and a soft brush to restore optimal traction.

Ensure you are tying your laces securely. Consider using a double knot technique if they continue to loosen during wear.

For light scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner applied sparingly with a soft cloth can sometimes minimize their appearance. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
