FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas Originals Samba 62 trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort and grip, they are not engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to refer to adidas' official sizing chart and measure your foot. Given these are trainers, consider if you prefer a snug or slightly looser fit and adjust accordingly. Checking customer reviews for sizing advice can also be helpful.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the suede offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions can damage the suede and leather. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments.

What is the difference between these and the original Samba?

The Samba 62 is an all-new design that reflects on the Samba's archival evolution. It features updated materials like 'Brown Strata' nubuck, 'Preloved Yellow' leather accents, wedged foam midsoles for improved comfort, and specific sole unit modifications, differentiating it from the OG Samba models.

How often should I clean my suede trainers?

Regular brushing after wear helps maintain the suede's appearance. Deep cleaning should be done as needed, based on the level of dirt and wear. Over-cleaning can damage the material.

What do the gold foil wordmarks signify?

The gold foil wordmarks are a premium branding detail that adds a touch of retro sophistication to the trainers, typically indicating the product name or series on the lateral side.

Troubleshooting

Suede losing its texture or looking dull.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dullness, a suede-specific cleaner might be necessary, always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces becoming worn or dirty.

Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and color. They can be hand-washed separately.

Yellow leather accents showing scuffs.

Gently buff the scuffs with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a dedicated leather conditioner may help, but apply sparingly.

Discomfort or pressure points during wear.

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Try different lacing techniques. If discomfort persists, the shoes may require a break-in period or might not be the ideal fit for your foot shape.
