adidas SL 72 RS Legend Ivy Shadow Olive JH5105

Materials & Upper Construction

• Waffle-Knit Textile Upper: A breathable mesh-like weave allows airflow to support comfort throughout the day.
• Strategic Suede Overlays: Reinforcements at the toecap, eyestay, and heel improve durability and add visual contrast.
• Classic Lacing System: Flat cotton laces with flexible eyelets offer a secure, adjustable fit.
• Stiffened Heel Counter: Internal padding stabilizes the heel and helps reduce friction while walking.

Colorway & Design Details

This edition features a tri-tone palette of Legend Ivy, Shadow Olive, and subtle touches of Gold Metallic. The upper is dominated by muted green tones, with darker suede panels set against a lighter textile base. Gold branding appears on the tongue and heel tab, adding contrast. The combination lends the model a balance of vintage styling and versatile color cues suitable for casual settings.

Cushioning & Outsole Performance

• EVA Midsole: Lightweight foam cushioning spans the full length of the sole to absorb impact across varied surfaces.
• Rippled Rubber Outsole: The patterned tread enhances grip on concrete, gravel, and uneven ground.
• Removable Insole: Can be taken out for cleaning or replaced to adjust support.

Fit & Internal Features

The interior includes a synthetic-textile lining that balances breathability and comfort. A rounded toe box allows natural foot movement, while foam padding along the collar provides additional support. Designed for a snug yet flexible fit, the shoes accommodate narrow to average-width feet. Refer to the adidas SL 72 RS size guide for detailed sizing information.
