FAQs
How do I properly clean the metallic and cracked leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild, pH-neutral leather cleaner. Gently wipe the surface without scrubbing. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, and allow to air dry naturally.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities like running or basketball?
The adidas Originals Samba OG is primarily designed for casual wear and light recreational activities, such as walking or 'kickabouts'. While durable, they are not specialized performance shoes for intense running or competitive sports.
What kind of fit can I expect from these trainers?
These trainers feature a regular fit, which generally means they are true to size for most feet. The lace closure allows for personal adjustment to achieve a secure and comfortable feel.
Is the cracked leather finish durable or will it flake off easily?
The cracked metallic leather is designed to be durable as part of the shoe's aesthetic. With proper care and cleaning, the finish should maintain its integrity and appearance over time. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh treatments.
What materials are used in the construction of these Samba OG trainers?
The trainers feature a genuine leather upper, a synthetic lining for interior comfort, and a durable rubber outsole for traction and longevity.
Can I wear these trainers in rainy or wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some protection, it is generally recommended to protect leather footwear from heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture to prevent water damage, staining, or changes to the material's texture. A water-repellent spray designed for leather can provide additional protection.
Troubleshooting
Metallic finish appears dull or scratched.
Gently clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. For minor scratches, a specialized metallic leather polish or conditioner can sometimes improve the appearance. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The leather upper may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house before extended use. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and applying a small amount of baby powder or talcum powder underneath it. If the squeak persists, check if it's the sole making contact with the ground; ensure soles are clean and dry.

These trainers are designed for immediate wear. Simply lace them up to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. They are compatible with a wide array of casual and smart-casual outfits, from denim to more athletic-inspired ensembles. To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Samba OG Silver trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: For the metallic and cracked leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild, pH-neutral leather cleaner. Gently wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the metallic finish. For the rubber sole, a soft brush and soapy water can be used.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can cause the leather to crack or fade.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray specifically designed for metallic or treated leather to help repel water and stains.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
