The adidas SL 72 has some pretty important firsts to its name: the SL 72 is the first adidas shoe to feature the trefoil logo, it’s also the first adidas to feature a nylon upper. Worn by Olympic athletes in the 1972 Munich games, the adidas SL 72 became synonymous with cutting edge design. As the 70s took sportswear beyond the racetrack and into the everyday, the adidas SL 72 was an obvious choice given its lightweight wearability and effortless style. More than 50 years later and the SL 72 is still a top pick for lifestyle wear. Whether you go for the classic or the SL 72 RS, you’ll be walking around in a piece of shoe history.
