FAQs
Are these adidas Samba trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, these adidas Samba trainers are designed for casual wear and street style, not for high-performance running or other sports. Their construction prioritizes comfort and durability for everyday use on flat surfaces.
How do I clean the full-grain leather upper?
To clean the leather, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and then apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
Are these trainers true to size?
adidas trainers generally run true to size, but fit can vary slightly between models. These are a UK size 12 for men. It is usually recommended to try them on or compare with other adidas footwear you own.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided, as it can potentially damage the leather and suede. If they do get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat.
What kind of surfaces do these trainers provide traction on?
The non-marking gum rubber sole is designed to provide reliable traction primarily on flat, dry surfaces such as pavement, indoor flooring, and smooth concrete. They are not intended for optimal grip on very wet, icy, or uneven terrain.
Will the gold foil detailing wear off over time?
The gold foil embossing is applied for a distinctive finish. Like most printed or embossed details, it may show signs of wear over extended use, especially if subjected to frequent rubbing or abrasion. Gentle cleaning will help preserve it.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the laces are not overtightened. A slight break-in period is normal for leather shoes. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size.
Leather appears dull or dry.
Clean the leather upper with a damp cloth and then apply a high-quality leather conditioner. Regular conditioning helps maintain the leather's natural oils and shine.
Scuff marks on the suede toe overlays.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove light scuffs. For more stubborn marks, use a suede eraser, then brush again to restore the nap.
Sole losing traction or becoming dirty.
Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Use a soft brush for tougher dirt in the sole's tread patterns. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the shoes.
Allow the trainers to air out after each wear. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprinkling a small amount of baking soda inside (remove before wearing) to neutralize smells. Ensure socks are worn to help absorb moisture.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather trainers:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper:
- Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth immediately after use to remove surface dirt and dust.
- For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth, following product instructions.
- Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as they can damage the leather.
- Suede Overlays:
- Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap.
- For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective.
- Sole Cleaning:
- Use a damp cloth and mild soap (if needed) to clean the gum rubber sole.
- A soft brush can help remove dirt from grooves.
- Drying:
- Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (e.g., radiators, heaters). High heat can cause leather to crack or shrink.
- Stuff with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Conditioning:
- Regularly apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the full-grain leather supple and prevent drying and cracking. Follow the conditioner's instructions.
- Storage:
- Store trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
