FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic running?
The Samba LT is designed primarily for casual lifestyle wear and is not intended for high-impact athletic activities like distance running.
Can I remove the fold-over tongue?
The tongue is a structural part of the Samba LT design and should not be removed.
How do I maintain the white finish?
Regularly wipe the leather surfaces with a clean, damp cloth and avoid exposure to mud or harsh staining liquids.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Samba LT generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to try them on in-store for the best fit.
Is the sole non-marking?
The classic gum sole is designed for grip and durability, making it suitable for most indoor and outdoor surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Tongue feels bulky under laces
Smooth the fold-over tongue flat against the laces before tightening them to create a uniform profile.
Scuff marks on the white upper
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild detergent to gently lift surface marks.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and try a double knot if the material remains slippery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba LT shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Adjust the laces firmly but comfortably across the bridge of your foot. If the tongue feels bulky, flatten it down manually to ensure it sits flush against the laces.
- Compatibility: These shoes are highly versatile and work best with casual attire like jeans, shorts, or joggers.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for tougher stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing or the rubber from drying out.
