FAQs
Are the adidas Samba OG trainers suitable for running?
No, the Samba OG trainers are designed as lifestyle sneakers for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not engineered for the specific support and cushioning required for running or intense athletic activities.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It is recommended to try them on for fit. They are designed with a classic fit, which may feel different from modern, athletic shoes. Consider the break-in period when assessing the fit.
Can I wash my Samba OG trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the adidas Samba OG trainers, as this can damage the materials and construction. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
How durable is the Gum sole?
The Gum sole is designed for traction and style. While durable for casual wear, it may show scuffs or wear over time with heavy use, which is typical for Gum rubber materials.
What is the main difference between Samba OG and other Samba models?
The 'OG' designation typically refers to the original or classic design. Samba OG models aim to stay true to the heritage silhouette and materials that made the original Samba iconic, often featuring premium leather and the classic Gum sole.
Do these trainers come in other colours?
Yes, the adidas Samba OG series is available in various colourways and material combinations. The 'Core Black and Cloud White with Gum sole' is one of the most classic and recognizable versions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. You can also try wearing thicker socks around the house to gently stretch the material.
Gum sole has minor scuffs
Gently rub the scuff marks with a clean pencil eraser or a specialized sole cleaner. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
Suede or leather upper shows dirt
Use a suede brush for suede areas and a damp cloth with mild soap for leather. Always test cleaning solutions on a small, hidden area first.
Laces are worn or dirty
Replace laces with new ones of similar length and colour. You can typically wash existing laces separately by hand or in a garment bag in a washing machine on a gentle cycle.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with most casual attire. They are not specifically designed for, nor are they compatible with, specialized athletic requirements.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and marks from the upper and sole. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.

- Sole Care: The Gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner can be used gently.
