FAQs
Are the adidas Samba OG suitable for running?
The Samba OG is designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for serious running.
How do I ensure the correct UK size?
Refer to the product sizing chart or try them on in-store if possible. The Samba OG generally follows standard UK sizing for men's footwear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to use a leather protector spray for added resistance.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is typically made of durable rubber, often featuring the classic gum rubber finish characteristic of the Samba OG.
How often should I clean my Samba OG trainers?
Clean them as needed, depending on usage. A quick wipe-down after each wear can help maintain their appearance, with deeper cleaning required for more significant dirt.
Is the Samba OG a unisex model?
While traditionally marketed towards men, the Samba OG's classic design is often embraced by all genders. Specific sizing options may vary.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight or stiff upon first wear
This is normal for leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the leather to mold to your foot.
Scuffs or marks on the white leather
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution on the rubber sole components.
Laces become worn or frayed
Replace the laces with standard flat shoelaces of a similar length. Many retailers offer replacement laces in various colours.

Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, use a slightly damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing.
