FAQs
Are the Samba OG Trainers suitable for sports?
While the Samba OG has roots in sports, they are primarily designed as casual lifestyle trainers today. They offer basic support and traction but are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the leather and suede parts?
Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains on leather, a damp cloth is suitable. Suede requires a suede brush and possibly a specialized cleaner. Always air dry away from heat.
What does 'COLD CEMENT construction' mean?
This refers to the manufacturing method where the outsole is bonded to the upper using adhesive at room temperature. It provides a durable bond but can sometimes result in a stiffer feel compared to stitched methods.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainers should feel snug but not tight. There should be a little room at the front, and your heel should not slip excessively when walking. The lace closure allows for personalized fit adjustments.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The leather and suede can be treated with a water-repellent spray for some protection. However, they are not waterproof, and prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the difference between Samba OG and other Samba models?
The Samba OG typically refers to models that closely adhere to the original design from the 1950s, often featuring specific material combinations and branding elements that are true to the heritage silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and wear them for a short period to allow the leather to adapt. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if insoles are needed.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner may be required.
Laces fraying
Replace the laces with a new pair of a similar length and material to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.
