Rediscover a legend from the archives. The adidas SL 72 shoes were originally released in 1972 to give runners an edge on the track. Decades later, their design still turns heads. This version features a nylon upper with suede overlays that provides retro style. Your feet stay cushioned thanks to an EVA midsole while a grippy outsole keeps you grounded.

These are cute sneakers. They run large (I recommend following the men's sizing, not women's). I wear a 9 in women's and a 7 1/2 in men's (not an 8). I would have kept them, however, I was disappointed to have received pre-worn shoes rather than new ones. I am going to return them.

I had to return these and order a half size smaller. For reference, I wear a WOMEN'S 7.5 US or a 38 EU. I always buy 7.5 in most shoes. If I am buying a shoe that doesn't offer half sizes, I almost always go for the 8 (almost never a 7), so I would say I am on the slightly bigger side of a 7.5. This product size chart put me in a unisex size 6.5 which wasn't right. The 6 fits well. I hope this helps.Also- I LOVE these shoes!!!! I bought the green/yellow/black color and I will order the blue ones too!

Purchased the black size 10 women's. The sizing is off. The details said Women's 10/ Men's 9. Usually a Women's 10 is a Men's 8.5! Had to return because the shoe is 1/2 size too large. Will return and order Women's 9.5/ Men's 8.5. Keeping my fingers crossed they fit when I receive them. Overall, the shoe is good quality and very lightweight. The black color is very vibrant. Can't wait to get my new size and hope they fit! I also ordered the green retro Adidas; which was a fit perfect. The size was a solid Women's 10. Come on Adidas, make sure your sizing is correct in the details.

It took 3 try’s to get a pair not damaged. This was my last attempt at purchasing from Nordstrom’s and I kept even though they were damaged, dented, hard to reform. I had to order from somewhere else.
The shoe runs large. Still trying to figure out my shoe size in this shoe. I’d recommend ordering a couple of smaller sizes. Overall, the shoe looks good on but it’s not a wow factor either.
I purchased these a few day ago and rec'd them 2 days later. Great shipping time.I am attending a Mother's Day event where the theme is yellow and green colors as well as guests asked to wear sneakers in tribute to one of the founders of the organization ( win, win, as the Adidas I chose are green with yellow stripes).I wear an 8 1/2 medium in women's shoes/sneakers, and I read that they run slightly large being a men's shoe.They are comfortable so far, only worn indoors as a try on/break in.Will update if any issues arise down the line.
Let’s talk about the box…well, it was a Nordstrom box not the Adidas box. As a sneaker head, I’m equally excited about the box as the sneaker inside. To say I was disappointed when they arrived in a plain Nordstrom box without warning might be an understatement. Shoes are great. Disappointed in communication.
Okay, I am a woman and constantly buy men’s shoes with sneakers because they are often the same but cheaper. A 5.5 in a men’s shoe is a women 7 sometimes 7.5. Glad I went with my gut. Size down and check conversion charts online. They are really cute and comfy. For reference I am a solid 7.5 in most shoes. The 5.5 men’s/ 6.5 women’s fit me perfectly and I got the blue. Love them.
i'm typically a women's size 9, occasionally 8.5, and after sizing down to women's 7.5 i still have an inch of room in the toe. the sizing is crazy big. the green and yellow is SO CUTE though i'm going to keep trying!
love these! i’ve been wearing adidas sambas for years- they are very popular and trending so i wanted to switch it up with something a little more unique. these are comfortable , retro and funky i hope they put out more colors
