FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Samba typically fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can I use these for sports?
While originally designed as indoor soccer shoes, they are now marketed for casual, everyday lifestyle wear rather than performance sports.
How do I clean the white leather?
Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild leather cleaner or a mixture of water and gentle soap, then air dry.
Are they water resistant?
The leather upper provides some protection against light splashes, but they are not waterproof.

The Samba features a traditional flat design with minimal arch support; you may use custom insoles if extra support is needed.
Are these unisex?

Troubleshooting
Creasing on the upper material
This is natural for leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape and minimize deep creases.
Dirty white exterior
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine.
Slippery soles
Clean the bottom of the outsole with a damp brush to remove grit and restore the natural grip of the rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low-top sneakers, they pair well with various trousers, including denim, chinos, and track pants. To ensure longevity, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage. Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the upper supple and prevent cracking. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their structural integrity.
