FAQs
Are these shoes made of leather?
The upper is constructed from modern nylon, though they do feature white leather accents on the heel mustache and a leather inner liner.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
The Samba OG generally fits true to size, but the nylon material may feel slightly more flexible than the classic leather versions.
How do I make the white stripes stay clean?
Use a magic eraser or a specialized sneaker cleaning solution on the leather stripes specifically to keep them bright white.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While durable, the nylon upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to provide a barrier against moisture and dirt.
What is the purpose of the reflective elements?
The reflective elements are integrated to increase your visibility to others in low-light or night-time environments.
Troubleshooting
Nylon surface looks dusty or faded
Use a soft, dry brush to gently remove surface dust, followed by a light wipe with a damp, lint-free cloth.
Creasing at the toebox
Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the nylon and structure maintain their original form.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers use nylon rather than leather, they should be cleaned with care. Avoid using harsh soaps or stiff brushes that might fray the nylon fibers. Instead, use a soft cloth with mild detergent and water for spot cleaning. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the toebox. When wearing, ensure the laces are secure but not overtightened to protect the nylon eyelet area. Due to the Focus Olive coloring, it is recommended to apply a fabric-safe water and stain repellent spray upon purchase to preserve the deep olive tone.
