FAQs

Are these suitable for sports?

The Samba OG trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they originated from football, they do not offer the specialized support or cushioning of modern athletic footwear for intense sports activities.

How do I clean the white leather?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, suede, and adhesives, affecting the shoe's structure and appearance.

What is the difference between Samba OG and Samba OG J?

Samba OG J typically refers to the 'Junior' or 'Kids' version of the Samba OG, often scaled down in size and sometimes adapted slightly for younger wearers. The core design and materials are usually very similar.

How does the sizing run?

The adidas Samba OG trainers generally run true to size. However, it's always recommended to refer to adidas's official size chart and consider trying them on if possible, especially for children's sizing.

How should I care for the suede parts?

Use a specialized suede brush to clean suede. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid getting the suede wet, and consider using a suede protector spray for added protection.

What material is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of durable gum rubber, providing excellent traction and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears scuffed or scratched

Use a white or color-matched leather polish to buff out minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, a leather repair kit may be needed.

Suede is stained or matted

Allow the suede to dry completely. Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap. For stubborn stains, try a suede eraser or consult a professional cleaner.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the gum rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. If the shoes are new, the outsole may need a brief 'breaking-in' period on rougher surfaces.

Tongue bunches up

Adjust the lacing to ensure the tongue lies flat. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not excessively tight, which can pull the tongue sideways.
