FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Generally, adidas SL 72 OG models are considered true to size. However, for the most accurate fit, refer to the official adidas size chart and consider your usual UK shoe size.

Can I use these for running or sports activities?

No, while inspired by a running shoe, the adidas SL 72 OG W is designed for casual wear and fashion purposes. It is not engineered for performance running or intense sports activities.

How should I clean the white leather and suede?

For leather, wipe with a damp cloth or use a specialized leather cleaner. For suede, use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap, and a suede eraser for marks. Avoid machine washing.

What materials are the shoes made of?

The shoes feature a premium leather upper with soft suede overlays, a lightweight EVA midsole for cushioning, and a durable rubber sole for traction.

Are these shoes suitable for all seasons?

These sneakers are best suited for dry conditions due to their leather and suede construction. While a protective spray helps, heavy rain or snow is not recommended to preserve the materials.

Do I need to waterproof them?

It is highly recommended to apply a quality water and stain repellent spray suitable for both leather and suede before first wear and periodically thereafter to protect your investment.

Troubleshooting

White leather upper appears stained or dirty.

Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly to the cloth, then wipe the shoe. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Suede overlays look dull, matted, or have surface dirt.

Use a suede brush with short, brisk strokes to lift the nap and remove dirt. For more embedded marks, a suede eraser can be effective, followed by brushing.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable during initial wear.

The premium leather may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the material to soften and mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size.

Sole has reduced grip on certain surfaces.

Check the rubber sole for any embedded debris that might be reducing traction. Clean the sole with a damp cloth if necessary to ensure the tread pattern is clear.

Care

Proper care is crucial to maintain the appearance and longevity of your leather and suede sneakers:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to help protect against elements and accidental spills.
  2. Regular Cleaning (Leather): For dirt or marks on the leather, gently wipe with a damp, soft cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner following the product's instructions.
  3. Regular Cleaning (Suede): Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For scuffs or tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective.
  4. Deep Cleaning: Periodically, use appropriate leather and suede cleaning products for a more thorough clean. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
  5. Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with paper towels or shoe trees to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  6. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and light.
