FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the SL 72 was originally inspired by running shoes, this OG model is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear rather than professional athletic performance.

How do I determine the correct size?

This model is specified for UK size 4.5. We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is at its largest for the best fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as the agitation and heat can damage the structure and adhesive components.

Does the leather/material hold up in wet weather?

These trainers are best suited for dry conditions. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray designed for lifestyle sneakers to provide minor protection against unexpected light moisture.

Are the insoles removable?

The insoles are generally intended to stay in place, but if you require custom orthotics, you may be able to carefully lift the existing ones depending on the specific construction batch.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or scuffs on white material

Use a soft-bristled brush with a mixture of mild detergent and water to gently spot-clean the area.

Shoes feel too snug

Loosen the lacing system starting from the bottom eyelets to distribute pressure more evenly across the bridge of the foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas SL 72 OG trainers remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the white base regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap to prevent dirt build-up. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could discolor the green accents.
  2. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from fading or cracking.
  3. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for the UK 4.5 measurement. They are compatible with most standard socks, though thin or athletic-cut socks are recommended to preserve the intended low-profile fit.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for debris and ensure laces are not overtightened to prevent stress on the eyelets.
