FAQs

Are the adidas Samba Vegan trainers truly vegan?

Yes, the adidas Samba Vegan trainers are made using only animal-free materials and have been certified as vegan.

How do I clean the gum sole?

The gum sole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a magic eraser or a specialized shoe cleaner may be used carefully.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from vegan leather alternatives and includes approximately 20% recycled content.

Are these suitable for playing soccer?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and do not offer the performance features required for playing soccer.

How does the fit compare to traditional leather Sambas?

While aiming for a similar fit, vegan materials can sometimes feel slightly different. It is recommended to try them on or check size guides carefully.

What does 'Gum Sole' refer to?

The 'Gum Sole' refers to the outsole made from a durable, typically brownish-colored rubber that provides good traction and a classic look.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Information on specific warranty periods should be checked with the retailer or the official adidas website, as it can vary by region and purchase date.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or stiff

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using a shoe stretcher or wearing thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Discoloration on the upper

Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. If discoloration persists, consult specific vegan leather cleaning guides.

Slight odor

Ensure shoes are properly aired out after wear. Use cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odor. Baking soda can also be used in a pinch by sprinkling it inside overnight and then vacuuming it out.
