FAQs

Are adidas Samba Super Trainers suitable for running or sports?

While they are referred to as 'sports shoes,' the Samba Super Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. For serious running or high-performance sports, we recommend specialized athletic footwear.

What materials are the adidas Samba Super Trainers made from?

The upper is typically crafted from durable leather, providing both comfort and longevity. The outsole is made of rubber for traction and grip. Specific material details can vary slightly by model and colorway, but leather is a common feature across the Samba Super range.

How do I choose the correct size?

We recommend referring to adidas's official sizing chart and measuring your foot if you're unsure. As a general guide, select your usual UK shoe size for a comfortable fit. If you are between sizes, consider ordering both to try on or checking specific reviews for sizing advice on that model.

Can I machine wash my Samba Super Trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers. It can damage the material, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Refer to the care instructions in this guide for proper cleaning methods.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The adidas Samba Super Trainers are not inherently waterproof. While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed to be worn in heavy rain or wet conditions. Consider using a protective spray for added water resistance.

How should I clean the white rubber soles?

For white rubber soles, you can use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water, or a specialized shoe sole cleaner. A magic eraser can also be effective for stubborn marks. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the rubber material.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially

The leather upper may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape. This process typically takes a few wears.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside of the shoe with a small amount of talcum powder, and then reinserting the insole. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly tight.

Scuffs or marks on the leather upper

For light scuffs, a damp cloth might suffice. For deeper marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a leather conditioner, applying it gently with a soft cloth. Follow the product's instructions carefully for best results.

Shoes develop an unpleasant odor

Regularly air out your trainers after wear. Consider using shoe deodorizers or placing cedar shoe trees inside when not in use. Ensure your socks are clean and breathable to prevent odor buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Getting started with your Samba Super Trainers is as simple as lacing them up. Ensure you choose the correct size for optimal comfort and fit. Refer to adidas's official sizing guide if you are unsure.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adults, with sizing typically following standard UK adult foot measurements. They are a unisex style, though this specific variant is listed as 'Male'. Their classic design makes them compatible with a wide array of personal styles and casual attire.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Cleaning: For leather uppers, wipe regularly with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Drying: If wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray periodically to help repel water and stains.
