FAQs

Are adidas Samba OG Trainers suitable for sports like football or running?

No, while the Samba has roots in football, the OG trainers are now considered lifestyle footwear. They are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance sports or intense athletic activities.

How do I determine the correct size?

adidas Samba OG trainers generally fit true to size for most individuals. We recommend consulting the adidas official size guide or trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these trainers in rainy weather?

The full-grain leather offers some protection against light moisture, but these trainers are not waterproof. We advise avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions to protect the leather and maintain the shoe's longevity.

What is 'full-grain leather' and why is it important?

Full-grain leather is the highest quality and most durable leather. It retains the natural grain of the hide, allowing it to develop a rich patina over time and offering superior resistance to wear and tear compared to other leather types.

How often should I clean and condition the leather?

Wipe down with a damp cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, aim for every few weeks, or more frequently if worn often or in dirty conditions. Adjust based on how often you wear them and environmental factors.

What does the 'textured rubber sole' mean for grip?

The textured rubber sole features a specific pattern designed to enhance traction and grip on various common surfaces, offering stability for daily walking and casual movement.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dry.

Clean the surface with a damp cloth, then apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This is often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole.

Poor grip on slightly wet surfaces.

While the textured rubber sole provides good general traction, always exercise caution on wet, icy, or very smooth surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean of debris that might reduce grip.

Foul odour inside the shoe.

Remove insoles and air out the shoes. Use an anti-bacterial shoe spray or insert odor-absorbing packets overnight. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.

Care Instructions

To ensure your full-grain leather adidas Samba OG Trainers maintain their premium look and extend their lifespan, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and light dirt. For tougher marks, use a small amount of specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth.
  2. Conditioning: Every few weeks, or as needed, apply a quality leather conditioner to nourish the leather, prevent drying, and maintain its supple texture. This helps prevent cracking and keeps the leather looking rich.
  3. Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can dry out and damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  5. Sole Care: Clean the textured rubber sole with a brush and mild soap and water to maintain grip and appearance.
