When we think of J. Crew we think of classic. They’re like a Manhattan in a sea of Fresh Fruit Caramel Appletinis. So, when they release a new sneaker we know it’s not going to have shocks, air pockets or any other bells and whistles to it – it’s just going to be something straightforward that we are going to seriously want. Not surprisingly their latest offering builds off a design from close to 40 years ago – the Adidas SL72. Now you can have a redesigned version of the famous Adidas sneaker they were rocking back in the ’72 Games. Complete with a track-inspired outsole for added traction and Nylex polypropylene lining, these Adidas SL72’s are our choice for what to wear next time we’re accepting an Olympic medal (or more likely just hitting the bar).
