FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The SL 72 OG trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer a classic athletic look, they do not provide the specialized cushioning and support required for serious running.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas for the SL 72 OG series. As these are a retro reissue, sizing may vary slightly from other adidas models. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the chart.

Troubleshooting
Discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using a mild soap and a damp, not wet, cloth. Always allow to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
Laces wear out quickly
Inspect laces for fraying and replace with standard shoelaces of similar length and material. Consider waxing them for increased durability.
Soles feel stiff
This is typical for retro-style trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Avoid excessive bending of the sole.
