WMNS Sporty & Rich x adidas SL72 OG "Mint Rush" JS0261

First released in 1972, the adidas SL 72 has stood the test of time as a hallmark of the brand’s rich heritage. Originally designed for athletes competing on the world stage, it is now reimagined through a collaboration with Sporty & Rich. This version retains its retro charm while incorporating thoughtful updates for today’s wearer.

The SL 72 stays true to its roots with authentic materials that evoke its original design. An EVA midsole provides effective cushioning for comfort, while the rubber outsole, with its dependable grip, ensures practicality for both casual outings and light activity. These elements blend performance and heritage seamlessly.

The “Mint Rush” colourway adds a refreshing touch, combining Mint Green with Power Purple and Cream White accents. The bold contrasts nod to 1970s design principles, delivering a look that balances vibrancy and subtlety. The use of these tones enhances the shoe’s vintage appeal while giving it a distinct identity.

This collaboration between Sporty & Rich and adidas highlights the timeless appeal of the SL 72. By honouring its origins while making it suitable for modern use, the “Mint Rush” offers a refined take on a classic silhouette, bridging the gap between past and present effortlessly.
