FAQs
What is the main material of the adidas Samba Decon?
The upper is primarily crafted from premium leather.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for intense athletic performance.
How should I clean the black leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning and a specialized leather cleaner for tougher stains. Always allow to air dry.
Do these trainers come in other colours?
Yes, the Samba series has a wide range of colourways, though this specific model is in 'Core Black' with gold accents.
What does 'Decon' mean in the product name?
'Decon' typically refers to a deconstructed design, meaning fewer layers and a more streamlined, minimalist construction.
What is the toe type on these trainers?
They feature a classic round toe type.
What is the closure system?
The closure system is lacing, providing an adjustable and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is normal for leather. Ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
Scuffs or scratches on the leather
For minor scuffs, try a leather cleaner or a coloured shoe cream that matches the 'Core Black' colour. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles feel stiff initially
The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the sole to flex and soften.
Discoloration from water exposure
Avoid prolonged exposure to water. If wet, dry naturally as per care instructions. Water spots can sometimes be mitigated with a leather conditioner once dry.

Care Instructions:
