Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Samba OG trainers in peak condition, ensure you follow these guidelines:
- Break-in period: The suede and leather upper may feel stiff initially but will mold to the shape of your foot with consistent wear.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede portions. For persistent stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the black suede from fading over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for most adults, though those preferring a thicker sock should consider their standard UK size or verify against the provided sizing chart.
