FAQs

Are Adidas Samba OGs true to size?

Adidas Samba OGs generally run true to size for most individuals. However, foot shapes vary, so it is always recommended to try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I use these sneakers for athletic activities?

No, while the Samba has football heritage, the OG version is designed for casual street style and everyday wear, not for high-performance sports or athletic activities.

How often should I clean my Samba OGs?

Cleaning frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. For everyday wear, a quick wipe down of the leather and brushing of the suede weekly can keep them looking fresh. Deep clean as needed.

Is the leather waterproof?

The leather upper is not inherently waterproof. While it offers some resistance to light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. A water-repellent spray can provide additional protection.

What is the best way to prevent odors?

Allow your sneakers to air out after each wear. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays, and wear moisture-wicking socks to help manage internal moisture and prevent odors.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective.

Leather creasing is visible

Regularly clean and condition the leather to maintain its suppleness. Using shoe trees when the sneakers are not in use can help retain their original shape and minimize creasing.

Squeaking sound when walking

Often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or petroleum jelly underneath the insole to reduce friction.
