Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Unboxing: Carefully remove the sneakers from their packaging.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets. Adjust the tension for a snug yet comfortable fit. Double-knotting is recommended for security.

- Age Group: Available in both `kids` and `adult` sizing, making them suitable for a wide range of ages.
- Gender: Designed as `Unisex` footwear, compatible with both male and female users.
- Styling: Their classic white color and iconic design make them highly compatible with diverse wardrobes, from casual denim to more structured streetwear.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Samba OG Sneakers:
- General Cleaning: For light dirt and dust, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth.
- Stain Removal: Address stains immediately. Use a gentle leather cleaner specifically formulated for white leather. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Sole Cleaning: Clean the rubber sole with a brush and mild soap and water solution to remove dirt and grime.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
