Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your adidas Samba OG Trainers are ready to wear right out of the box.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure they are snug but not too tight.
- First Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Compatibility
These trainers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire.
- Casual: Pair with jeans, shorts, joggers, and t-shirts.
- Smart-Casual: Combine with chinos, simple trousers, polo shirts, or casual button-downs.
- Seasonal: Suitable for all seasons, though leather can be warm in very hot weather.
Care
To maintain the premium look and extend the life of your full-grain leather Samba OG Trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning:
- Wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
- For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly to a clean cloth, then gently wipe.
- Clean the rubber sole with a brush or damp cloth to remove grime.
- Protection:
- Consider applying a leather protector spray periodically to help repel water and stains.
- Avoid direct exposure to excessive moisture. If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage:
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Use shoe trees or stuff with paper to help maintain their shape when not in use for extended periods.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid harsh cleaning agents, abrasive brushes, or direct heat sources as these can damage the leather.
