With new SL models popping it’s fair to say that in recent months the ’70s lineup of heritage runners have been given a substantial amount of adidas’ attention. With their development originally oversaw by non-other than Adi Dassler himself, the SL 72 is now an undisputed household name in the trefoil family, seeing the sanctity of its native DNA immortalized among a selection of both new and fan favorite colorways.

Utilising a contrasting mixture of Deep Navy against bold Red accents, this new iteration is no different. Featuring the same winning combination of both nylon and suede to their uppers, they come with all the usual trimmings including Three Stripe branding, t-toe design and synthetic lined inner. Streamlined, low profile and sleek, the trainers are finished with a lightweight EVA midsole and traction-providing rubber outsole.
