FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Samba OG is a lifestyle trainer designed for casual wear and walking, not for athletic performance or running.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a suede-specific brush and eraser. Avoid getting the suede overly wet, as this can lead to permanent water staining.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Samba OG generally fits true to size, but since they are built on a slim profile, those with wider feet may prefer to try a half-size up.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is highly recommended not to put suede trainers in the washing machine, as the water and detergent will ruin the suede texture and colour.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from premium suede, providing both a soft feel and a classic look.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust on suede
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently buff the surface in a single direction.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural occurrence with soft materials; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.
General scuffing
Apply a specialized suede eraser to gently lift scuffs without damaging the nap of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG trainers remain in top condition, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud, as moisture can damage the suede texture. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink. Ensure you check the specific UK size to match your foot measurement accurately, as sizing across the Samba series should be consistent with your standard adidas footwear size.
