FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for infants who are just starting to walk?
Yes, these Adidas Samba Infant Trainers are well-suited for first walkers. The lightweight EVA midsole provides cushioning, and the grippy gum rubber outsole offers excellent traction and stability crucial for developing balance and confidence during early steps.
How do I clean these leather trainers?
The leather upper is designed for easy cleaning. Simply wipe down the trainers with a damp cloth immediately after use to remove dirt and scuffs. For stubborn marks, a small amount of mild leather cleaner can be applied. Do not machine wash.
What does 'elasticated lace fastening' mean?
Elasticated lace fastening means the laces have elasticity, allowing for some stretch and flexibility. While they still need to be tied, the elastic properties help provide a snug, secure fit that moves with your infant's foot and makes the shoe slightly easier to put on and take off compared to traditional non-elastic laces.
Are these shoes durable enough for active infants?
Absolutely. Constructed with a durable leather upper and a robust gum rubber outsole, these trainers are built to withstand the rigors of infant activity, from crawling and scooting to walking and playful exploration.
Do these trainers provide good arch support for infants?
Infant footwear typically focuses on flexibility and a natural foot shape rather than pronounced arch support, as infant arches are still developing. The lightweight EVA midsole provides soft cushioning and overall support for healthy foot development without restricting natural movement.
Can my infant wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, these trainers are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions, it's advisable to choose waterproof footwear to keep your infant's feet dry and comfortable. Always air dry if they get wet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes seem too tight or difficult to put on
Ensure the elasticated laces are fully loosened before attempting to put the shoe on. Double-check your infant's foot measurement against Adidas's sizing guide to confirm the correct size. If new, the leather may need a few wears to soften slightly.
Infant's feet seem sweaty or warm
While leather offers some natural breathability, it's not as airy as mesh. Ensure your infant is wearing appropriate, moisture-wicking socks. If possible, remove shoes periodically during long wear times to allow feet to air out. Ensure the fit isn't overly tight.
Trainer sole appears less grippy over time
Regularly clean the gum rubber outsole to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might reduce traction. Use a brush or damp cloth to scrub the tread patterns. If the outsole appears excessively worn or smooth, it may be time for a new pair to ensure optimal safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Loosen Laces: Gently pull on the elasticated laces to create enough room for your infant's foot.
- Insert Foot: Carefully guide your infant's foot into the trainer, ensuring their heel is seated properly at the back.
- Adjust Fit: Once the foot is in, gently pull the elasticated laces to achieve a snug but not overly tight fit. The elastic provides flexibility while holding the foot securely.
- Check Comfort: Ensure there's enough wiggle room for toes and that the shoe doesn't pinch anywhere.

Care Instructions
- Cleaning: The durable leather upper makes these trainers easy to maintain. Simply wipe clean with a damp cloth immediately after use to remove dirt and scuffs. For tougher marks, a mild leather cleaner can be used, applied sparingly with a soft cloth.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry or use artificial heat sources, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure.
