FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of high-quality leather.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are primarily lifestyle shoes designed for comfort and style. While suitable for light activities, they are not designed as performance running shoes.
How do I clean the white leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the purpose of the extended tongue?
The extended tongue is a stylistic element inspired by classic football boots, adding a unique visual detail to the shoe's design.
Can the extended tongue be folded down?
While the design features an extended tongue, it is intended to be worn as is. Folding it down may affect the fit and aesthetic.
Are these shoes available in other colors?
This specific model is presented in Cloud White with Core Black accents. Other variations within the Samba series may exist in different colorways.
What is the fit like?
The shoes feature a classic lacing system for an adjustable fit. The leather lining aims to provide comfort. It is recommended to consult sizing guides for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your feet. If the issue persists, consider professional shoe stretching or ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly.
Leather creasing excessively.
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees for storage. Ensure proper drying methods are used if the shoes get wet.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The rubber sole offers grip, but some smooth or wet surfaces may reduce traction. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For extremely slick conditions, consider specialized footwear.

Care Instructions:

- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the leather to crack or warp.
