FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The adidas SL 72 OG is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for performance running. While they offer cushioning and support, dedicated running shoes would be more appropriate for athletic activities.

What materials are used in these shoes?

These shoes feature a `leather upper` combined with `lightweight textile`, a `textile lining` for comfort, an `EVA midsole` for cushioning, and a `durable rubber outsole` for grip.

How do I choose the right size?

The shoes have a `standard cut`. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, you might consider trying on a half-size up due to the 'slim profile'.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, textile materials, and adhesives. Please refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning instructions.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The `cushioned EVA midsole` provides general comfort and support for everyday wear. For specific arch support needs, you may consider using aftermarket insoles designed for your foot type, though this might affect the slim fit.

What does 'OG' stand for?

In adidas terminology, 'OG' often stands for 'Original,' indicating that the design is a faithful or close reproduction of an initial release or classic silhouette from the brand's archives.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Check your lacing. Ensure laces are not pulled excessively tight. If discomfort persists, consider that the 'slim profile' may not be ideal for your foot width. Allow for a break-in period as materials will soften.

Squeaking sound when walking

Sometimes a squeak can come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and replacing it. A small amount of baby powder under the insole can also help.

Poor grip on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers reliable grip, no shoe is entirely slip-proof. Exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole treads are clean of mud or debris that could reduce traction.

Foot odor

Ensure your feet are clean and dry before wearing. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes when not in use to absorb odors. Allow shoes to air out regularly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines classic aesthetic with modern comfort.
  • Lightweight and breathable materials for all-day wear.
  • Good cushioning for general daily use.
  • Reliable grip and support on various surfaces.
  • Versatile design suitable for many casual outfits.
  • Personalized and secure fit with lace-up closure.

Cons

  • Slim profile may not be ideal for individuals with wider feet.
  • Primarily designed for casual use, not heavy athletic performance.
  • Leather upper requires specific cleaning and care to maintain.
  • Info needed: May not offer extensive specialized arch support for all foot types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your adidas SL 72 OG sneakers is straightforward:

  1. Unpack: Remove the shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lace Up: Use the lace-up closure to adjust the fit to your comfort. Ensure laces are snug but not overly tight to allow for proper blood circulation and flexibility.
  3. Break-In: Like most footwear, a short break-in period may be beneficial to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.

Compatibility

The adidas SL 72 OG features a `standard cut` with a `slim profile`. This design is generally compatible with most foot types, but individuals with wider feet might find the slim profile snug. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. The versatile style easily complements a wide range of casual and sporty wardrobes.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your sneakers:

  • Cleaning the Upper (Leather & Textile Mix):
  1. Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush.
  2. Mix a small amount of mild soap with lukewarm water.
  3. Dip a soft cloth into the soapy water, wring it out, and gently wipe down the leather and textile sections. Avoid saturating the material.
  4. Wipe away soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
  5. Allow to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole:
  1. Use a brush (an old toothbrush works well) and soapy water to scrub dirt from the EVA midsole and rubber outsole.
  2. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  • General Maintenance:
  • Avoid machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • For leather portions, consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
