FAQs
Is the adidas Samba OG true to size?
Yes, the Samba OG generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size up to account for the slim profile.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the leather, degrade the suede, and warp the shape of the shoe. Hand cleaning is strongly recommended.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed primarily from premium leather with suede overlays on the toe.
Are these sneakers limited edition?
Yes, this specific version was released as a special edition in collaboration with Sporty & Rich to commemorate the 2024 Summer Olympics.
How should I store them?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing or the materials from drying out.
Do the laces come pre-installed?
Yes, the sneakers arrive with off-white laces installed to match the vintage athletic theme.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree immediately after wearing to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Dirty suede toe overlay
Use a dedicated suede eraser or a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the texture.
Stains on white leather
Apply a mild, leather-safe cleaner with a soft cloth, working in circular motions, then wipe dry immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OGs maintain their premium appearance, avoid excessive exposure to mud, water, and harsh weather conditions. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust from the suede t-toe periodically. For the leather portions, a damp cloth with mild soap is generally sufficient for spot cleaning. Because these are classic leather trainers, it is recommended to use a shoe tree when not in use to preserve the silhouette and prevent creasing. The standard lacing system allows for a customizable fit; ensure the off-white laces are threaded evenly to maintain the intended refined aesthetic.
