FAQs
Is the adidas Samba OG true to size?
Most users find the Samba OG runs true to size, though it has a relatively narrow fit compared to modern athletic sneakers.
Can these be machine washed?
No. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and the metallic finish of the leather. Stick to surface cleaning methods.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Because of the slim, retro design, those with wider feet may find them snug and might consider sizing up by a half size.
Does the gold color fade over time?
Like all metallic finishes, the gold tone can show signs of wear and slight fading with heavy use and friction, but proper care significantly extends its lifespan.
Are these shoes unisex?
While this specific version is noted for female sizing, the Samba silhouette is inherently unisex in style.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set wrinkles.
Surface scuffs on the gold material
Gently buff the area with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive brushes or harsh chemicals which may strip the metallic pigment.
Sole grip feels slippery
The rubber sole may require 'scuffing' on rough surfaces to improve traction after the initial break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: The shoes may feel slightly stiff out of the box. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface dust. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for metallic finishes, applying it sparingly with a microfiber cloth.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade or dull the metallic sheen over time.
- Protection: Consider using a neutral water-repellent spray designed for leather to protect the surface from unexpected spills or light rain.
