FAQs

Are these suitable for playing football?

The Samba Classic is a lifestyle shoe inspired by football heritage. While they offer good grip, they are not designed for the demands of professional or serious amateur football play.

How do I clean mud off the leather?

Allow mud to dry first, then gently brush it off. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, wiping clean immediately after.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and sole construction.

How often should I use leather conditioner?

For optimal care, use a leather conditioner every 3-6 months, depending on how frequently you wear the shoes and the climate conditions.

What does 'wear-resistant' mean in this context?

It means the materials and construction are designed to withstand abrasion and general daily use better than standard footwear, prolonging the shoe's life for casual wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with appropriate socks for a few hours each day to allow the leather to stretch slightly. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner using a soft cloth and let it absorb. Buff gently afterwards.

Soles show signs of wear

While designed to be wear-resistant, heavy daily use will eventually show. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes to extend their lifespan.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with standard flat shoelaces of a similar length. Many sports or shoe stores carry replacements.
