Archival trainers retooled with fresh proportions.

First introduced in — you guessed it — 1972, the adidas SL 72 shoes were originally part of the super light range of running shoes from adidas. They quickly got noticed on the track for their sleek and minimalist design and material combination, something that still remains true today. They have a thick, comfortable EVA midsole with a soft compound that rides on a gripped ripple outsole. Textile overlays on the reshaped leather upper and gold details give an even more luxe spin to the OG aesthetic.
