Buying shoes online can be a gamble — especially when buying for someone else. But one of your safest options is to go with a cute and versatile sneaker that can be dressed up, down, and every which way.
Right now, Nordstrom is having a sale on select colors of these Adidas Gender Inclusive SL 72 RS Sneakers, which you can get for up to 50% off the original price. The only catch is that sizes are selling out quickly, so you’ll want to snag your size and preferred color sooner rather than later.

These shoes have a classic retro running style, which was first developed in 1972. Though running shoes have evolved quite a bit since then, they have remained a popular choice for fashion and casual wear, and while they may not be your first pick for a 5k, they are excellent for your everyday pavement pounding.
“The style and fit are excellent,” said one shopper. “I have higher arches than most and by adding a good pair of supportive insoles I made these trainers the perfect walking shoe for a summer trip to Italy. They were cool and the light weight made long walks in the heat seem effortless. Everyone loves the retro style as well.”
These shoes are currently on sale in six colorways, and they have a unisex sizing model, which means there is a full range of sizes for both men and women.

Many customers noted that they run a bit large — though this is typical with Adidas, so if you already own a shoe by the brand you can stick with that size.
“Size down and check conversion charts online,” said one shopper. “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!”
This sale is only up for a limited time — and stock is already dwindling in certain colors and sizes. Don’t wait to order or you could miss out on your chance to find your new favorite shoe!
