FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?
The Samba OG has a relatively slim and narrow fit. If you have wider feet, you may want to consider going up half a size.
Can I wear these for playing sports?
While originally designed as indoor soccer shoes, they are now intended for lifestyle and casual use. They lack the technical cushioning required for modern sports.
How do I clean the gum sole?
Use a soft-bristled brush with warm soapy water to scrub the rubber sole, taking care to avoid getting the leather upper wet.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, they are made from natural leather, which can absorb water. It is recommended to use a leather-safe water repellent spray if you intend to wear them in wet conditions.
What is the material composition of the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily from premium leather, providing durability and a classic look.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
This is normal for leather sneakers; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape and minimizes deep creases.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft cloth with a mild leather cleaning solution to gently buff out marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers fit true to size for most users, though the leather upper may require a brief break-in period to soften and conform to your foot shape. To keep the shoes in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather discoloration. Clean the white surfaces using a soft cloth and a gentle leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and the texture of the leather.
