Product Information

Full details

The adidas SL 72 OG trainers are designed for individuals who appreciate a vintage, 1970s-inspired aesthetic without sacrificing modern comfort for daily wear. These trainers offer a perfect blend of retro style through their signature animal print and T-toe design, supported by an EVA midsole for lightweight cushioning. While they provide excellent style and casual comfort, users should note that the suede material requires careful maintenance to preserve its appearance in poor weather conditions.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on a 70s runner, these are classified as lifestyle trainers. They are suitable for walking and daily wear, but not recommended for professional athletic training.

How do I keep the white sections clean?

Spot clean the white sections with a damp cloth and mild soap, but be very careful not to let the soap or water soak into the suede areas.

Does the suede material stretch over time?

Suede is a natural material and will naturally soften and adapt slightly to the shape of your foot with regular wear.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and affect the shoe structure. Always clean by hand.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily from suede, offering a premium feel and vintage look.

Are these true to size?

These trainers generally fit true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear thick socks, some users prefer to go up by a half size.

Troubleshooting

The suede is looking worn or flat.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap back up in one direction to restore its original texture.

Minor surface dirt on the upper.

Use a soft, dry brush to gently sweep away loose particles. Avoid using water or harsh liquid soaps directly on the suede.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight feel perfect for all-day wear
  • Timeless design pairs well with both casual and modern outfits
  • Reliable traction provided by the gum rubber outsole
  • Combines authentic heritage look with modern cushioning

Cons

  • Suede upper is sensitive to moisture and stains
  • Not intended for high-performance athletic sports
  • Material may require specialized cleaning tools

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are classic lifestyle trainers, there is no technical setup required. To ensure a long lifespan for your footwear:

  1. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt from the suede after each wear.
  2. Moisture Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before initial use to protect against accidental spills.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading.
  4. Maintenance: If the suede becomes matted, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and restore the texture.
