FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor sports?
While the adidas Samba is durable for casual outdoor wear, its gum rubber outsole is specifically designed to be non-marking and perform best on indoor surfaces, such as for indoor football. For specialized outdoor sports, dedicated outdoor athletic footwear is recommended.
How do I determine the correct size for me?
The adidas Samba generally runs true to size for UK shoe sizes. We recommend referring to the adidas official sizing chart if you are unsure, and consider your usual UK size for adult male footwear.
Can I put my adidas Samba shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is strongly advised not to put your adidas Samba shoes in a washing machine. The leather and suede materials, along with the construction adhesives, can be damaged by water, heat, and harsh detergents. Refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning instructions.
What is the primary material of the shoe?
The adidas Samba features a premium leather upper with supportive suede overlays, offering a blend of durability, comfort, and classic styling.
Will the sole leave marks on my floors?
No, the adidas Samba is equipped with a 'gum rubber outsole' which is specifically designed to be non-marking, making it safe for indoor courts and various floor types.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used, followed by brushing.
Leather looks dull or has minor scuffs
Wipe the leather clean with a damp cloth, then apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish designed for black leather to restore its shine and minimize scuffs.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially, or use shoe stretchers designed for leather to gently expand the material. Ensure you have the correct size.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the shoes
Remove insoles and air out shoes after each wear. Use an odor-absorbing product, such as cedar shoe trees or baking soda sachets, placed inside overnight. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.

For care, maintaining the quality of your Samba shoes involves attention to their leather and suede components:
- Cleaning: For general dirt, gently wipe the leather with a damp, soft cloth. For suede areas, use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore the nap. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, especially on suede.
- Stain Removal: Treat stains promptly. For leather, a mild leather cleaner can be used. For suede, a suede eraser can help with dry stains. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Consider applying a protective spray specifically designed for leather and suede to repel water and stains, particularly important if you plan to wear them in varying conditions.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and color fading. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
