FAQs
What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?
The adidas Originals SL 72 OG trainers are best suited for casual everyday wear, walking, and light activities. They are not designed for high-impact sports or intense athletic training.
How do I ensure the best fit?
It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider your usual shoe size and foot width.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand wash with a damp cloth instead.
What is the primary cushioning technology used?
These trainers utilize an EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) midsole for lightweight cushioning.
Are these trainers waterproof?

What does 'low-profile design' mean in this context?
A low-profile design refers to a shoe with a relatively flat and streamlined silhouette, sitting close to the ground, as opposed to bulky or high-top designs.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too taut. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in time is needed.
Traction seems insufficient.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For significantly worn outsoles, replacement may be necessary.
Discoloration on the material.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. For stubborn marks, consult specialized shoe cleaning guides for the specific materials.
