FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they are generally true to size, but the performance-focused fit is intentionally snug for stability.

Can I use these for sports other than skateboarding?

While designed for skating, their origin is as an indoor football shoe, making them excellent for casual indoor sports and lifestyle wear.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the Samba ADV is primarily constructed from suede and textile materials which are not waterproof.

Do I need to replace the insoles?

The moulded sockliner is designed for optimal performance; however, it can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.

How do I maintain the suede texture?

Keep the suede dry and brush it periodically with a suede-specific brush to maintain the nap of the material.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot

Loosen the laces significantly before entry; the internal tongue wings are designed to be snug but will stretch slightly with wear.

Tongue slides to the side during activity

Ensure the lace-through loop on the tongue is utilized to engage the signature tongue wings, which secure the placement.

Difficulty cleaning off scuff marks

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush specifically for suede to lift marks without damaging the texture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to dual-layer Adituff toe construction
  • Superior locked-in fit prevents heel slip
  • Responsive board feel ideal for technical tricks
  • Timeless design that remains stylish off the board

Cons

  • Snug fit may require a break-in period for some users
  • Not intended for heavy-duty winter weather conditions
  • Specific skateboarding design may feel stiff compared to casual lifestyle sneakers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Samba ADVs remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the material to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede and upper. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the materials.
  3. Maintenance: If the outsole loses grip, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading or structural warping.
