FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Samba OG generally fits true to size, but we recommend measuring your child's foot with a measuring tape to ensure the perfect fit for their current growth stage.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the leather Samba OG trainers, as this can damage the material and affect the adhesive bonds.
Are they suitable for running sports?
While they are comfortable for casual movement and play, they are classified as casual lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance running shoes.
How do I protect the white leather from stains?
Applying a water-repellent spray designed for leather before the first wear can help create a barrier against dirt and minor spills.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them during heavy rain or in wet, muddy conditions.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the white leather
Gently rub the area with a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth dipped in a mild soapy solution.
Laces coming untied frequently
Double-knot the laces or consider replacing them with elastic no-tie laces for a more secure, convenient fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG trainers remain in top condition, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth after each use to prevent dust accumulation.
- Stain Removal: Use a gentle leather cleaner specifically formulated for white sneakers to treat scuffs.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are tightened correctly for the child's foot size to avoid unnecessary heel slippage and premature wear on the interior heel lining.
