FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Samba XLG generally follows standard UK sizing, but if you have wider feet, consider checking the fit profile as the XLG silhouette is slightly broader than the original Samba.
Can I use these for sports?
While durable for daily wear and light activity, they are categorized as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance athletic gear.
How do I clean the gold accents?
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the gold areas; avoid abrasive brushes that could strip the metallic finish.
Are these limited edition?
This version features a collaboration with Su Yiming, which may impact its availability compared to general releases.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted for a balance of durability and style, utilizing high-quality materials standard to the Samba XLG line.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Difficulty keeping white surface clean
Use a specialized sneaker protector spray before the first wear to create a barrier against dirt and liquids.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure a proper double-knot or switch to a high-friction lace material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Samba XLG trainers, ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the XLG model may feature a slightly different volume compared to vintage models. For care, it is recommended to spot-clean the white upper with a gentle brush and mild soap to preserve the leather or synthetic finish. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial chemicals. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation and color fading. Check laces periodically for wear and replace them with standard flat laces if they become frayed.
