FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The SL72 OG trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. While they offer cushioning, they are not engineered for high-impact running or athletic performance.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The best way to ensure a proper fit is to measure your foot length and compare it to the brand's size chart. Try them on indoors to check for comfort, ensuring there's enough room in the toe box without the heel slipping.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage to the leather and maintain comfort.

What does 'OG' stand for in SL72 OG?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original' or 'Original Gangster,' indicating that this model is a reissue or faithful reproduction of the original design from the 1970s.

How often should I condition the leather?

The frequency depends on usage and climate. Typically, conditioning the leather every 6-12 months, or when it appears dry, is sufficient to keep it supple and protected.

What is the construction method mentioned ('Cold Cement')?

Cold cement construction is a method where the outsole is attached to the upper using adhesives at room temperature. It's a common and durable method for casual footwear.

Will the seasonal design wear off?

The design elements are part of the shoe's materials and finish. With proper care, the design should remain intact for the lifespan of the shoe, though like any footwear, excessive wear and tear can eventually affect its appearance.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try loosening the laces slightly, or apply a small amount of talcum powder or saddle soap to the tongue or insole area where friction might be occurring. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.

Leather feels stiff

New leather can be stiff. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. You can also use a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear to help soften the material.

Discoloration on pink/red areas

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture, which can cause colors to fade or bleed. Clean with a damp cloth only and store properly. For persistent issues, consult a specialist leather care product.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a similar length and material. You can purchase replacement laces from shoe stores or online retailers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The adidas Originals SL72 OG trainers require no specific setup. They come ready to wear. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult female footwear and are compatible with most casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, and casual dresses. They are best suited for dry to mildly wet conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a gentle wipe with a clean cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
  2. Suede/Nubuck Care (if applicable to specific sections): Use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. Treat with a suede protector spray for added protection against water and stains.
  3. Midsole and Outsole: Clean with a damp cloth. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a mild soap and water solution, then wiped clean.
  4. Laces: Remove laces and hand wash with mild detergent or place in a mesh bag and machine wash on a gentle cycle. Air dry completely before re-lacing.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the shoe.
