What's better than a classic adidas SL 72 sneaker? How about one dripped out in creamy leather.

Fashion's favorite retro adidas sneaker just got even more stylish, having embraced a full-leather look for a new SL 72.

We typically see the SL 72 dressed in cozy suede and crisp nylon textures. Now, incredibly smooth leather takes over the adidas SL 72 shoe, bringing a fashionable buttery-ness and slight luxe-level shine to the red-hot shoe.

What's more, the adidas SL 72 sports contrast stitching throughout the upper, spotlighting the vintage charm in the 70s-born runner.

adidas offers its leather adidas SL 72 in two classic colorways, black with off-white Three Stripes and off-white with black stripes. adidas' leather SL 72 also comes in some shiny metallic options, but the above pairs are too timeless to pass up.

The newest SL 72 appeared on a few international adidas websites previously — and since sold out (shocker). But who knows? Maybe the sportswear brand will spread the leather wealth soon with a wider release.

Following a super stylish spin by Wales Bonner, the SL 72 quietly resurfaced with some general release colorways, quickly becoming the people's new "Samba" this year.

Just recently, the SL 72 was officially crowned the streets' new "it" sneaker, toppling the Samba, who by the way, has been looking quite elderly lately.

adidas continues to keep its star sneaker fresh by giving the SL 72 modernly chunky lifts and refreshingly retro colorways. Oh, and there have even been a few breezy iterations for summer, too.

Fall is now on the horizon, and even feet deserve a nice leather jacket for the season.
