FAQs
What is the primary inspiration for the SL 72 OG trainers?
The SL 72 OG trainers are inspired by the classic, sleek low-profile silhouettes and retro aesthetic of the 1970s, drawing from vintage sports culture.
What materials are used in the construction of these trainers?
They are constructed using a combination of lightweight textile materials and soft suede inserts, with leather accents and a solid rubber sole.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
While the rubber sole offers good grip and they are lightweight, they are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not high-impact athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a specialized suede brush for general cleaning and nap restoration. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully, and avoid getting the suede wet.
What is the sole height of the SL 72 OG trainers?
The sole height is 2.5 cm at its highest point.
Are these trainers available in other colours or sizes?
The SL 72 OG series is available in various colourways and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific options.
Do these trainers offer significant ankle support?
The SL 72 OG trainers have a low-profile design, which means they offer minimal ankle support. They are best suited for activities where high ankle stability is not a primary requirement.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. If discomfort persists, consider the fit for your foot shape.
Tread wear on the rubber sole
This is normal with regular use. If significant wear impacts grip, it may be time to consider replacement.
Discoloration on textile or leather
Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
