FAQs
Are the adidas Originals Samba OG trainers suitable for running?
No, the Samba OG trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good grip, they lack the specific cushioning and support features required for activities like running.
How should I clean the gum sole?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with a little mild soap to gently scrub the gum sole. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Do these trainers come in different colors?
The specific model described here features a brown and beige color family. However, the Samba series has been released in many different colorways over the years.
What is the best way to store my Samba OG trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using the original box or a dust bag is recommended to maintain their shape and protect them.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Many users find it helpful to compare with other adidas shoes they own. Trying them on in-store or checking customer reviews regarding fit can also be beneficial.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the gum sole provides some traction, the leather upper is not inherently waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a waterproofing treatment can offer some protection.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight upon arrival
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot with wear. Try wearing them for short periods initially or consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is significant.
Gum sole is showing signs of wear or discoloration
Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For discoloration, a specialized sole cleaner might help. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber.
Leather surface scuffed or scratched
For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or a cream polish in a matching color can often help to mask the imperfection. Deeper scratches may require professional repair.
Laces are fraying or worn
Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and material. adidas offers replacement laces, or you can find suitable alternatives at most shoe retailers.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your leather Samba OG trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for leather to protect against moisture and stains. Reapply periodically.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape. Stuffing them with paper can help retain their form when not in use.
