FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoes, the SL 72 OG are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They offer good cushioning for walking but are not specialized for high-performance running.
How do I clean the leather and suede parts?
Use a soft brush for general cleaning. For stains on suede, a suede eraser or brush is recommended. Leather can be wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh cleaning agents.
What is the main difference between SL 72 and SL 72 OG?
The SL 72 OG are specific retro releases that pay homage to the original SL 72 designs, often featuring updated colours and materials for a contemporary feel while retaining the classic silhouette.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
These trainers are not waterproof. While the rubber outsole offers some protection, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended for maintaining the condition of the leather and suede.
What kind of socks should I wear with them?
You can wear them with various types of socks, from thin athletic socks to thicker casual socks, depending on your comfort preference and the weather.
Do they offer good arch support?
The EVA midsole provides cushioning and general support suitable for everyday wear. For individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using custom insoles.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Try wearing them with different thickness socks. If the issue persists after a break-in period, consider trying a different size. Consult the brand's sizing chart for guidance.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, ensuring not to saturate the material. Allow to dry completely and brush again.
Traction seems reduced
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. If the tread is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.
