FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
No, while the Samba has football origins, this OG reissue is designed for casual wear and fashion purposes, not for athletic performance or sports.
How do I determine the correct size?
These shoes come in a standard fit. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the leather, suede, and overall construction of the shoe. Please follow the specific care instructions for cleaning leather and suede.
What materials are used in the shoe?
The adidas Samba OG features a leather upper, suede overlays (specifically the T-toe), a textile tongue, synthetic lining, and a rubber outsole.
Will the white leather get dirty easily?
As with any white footwear, light colors are more prone to showing dirt. Regular cleaning and applying a protective spray can help maintain their pristine look.
Is the 'Collegiate Green' a dark or light green?
The 'Collegiate Green' is a distinct shade of green, offering a vibrant contrast to the white upper. It's a classic, somewhat muted green that aligns with the shoe's heritage aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear dirty or stained after wear.
For leather areas, gently wipe with a damp cloth. For suede parts, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt, followed by a suede eraser for tougher marks. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. While designed for grip on urban surfaces, exercise caution on extremely wet or polished floors. The flat sole is not designed for aggressive traction in challenging conditions.
Fit feels too loose or too tight.
Adjust the lace closure. The Samba OG offers a standard fit; if persistent discomfort occurs, confirm you have the correct UK size. Consider trying different lacing techniques for a more personalized fit.
