FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made entirely of soft suede.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Avoid excessive moisture and always test cleaners first.

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

These shoes are designed for casual everyday wear and urban environments. They are not intended for intense athletic activities.

What is the main benefit of the rubber sole?

The traditional rubber sole provides excellent traction and durability for everyday use.

How do I get the best fit?

Utilize the lace-up closure to adjust the tightness for a secure and personalized fit.

What colors are available for the Samba OG "Alumina"?

This specific model features a beige suede upper with silver contrasting three stripes and a gum rubber sole.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, suede is not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. For minor dirt, a dry suede brush can often remove it. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are difficult to tighten.

Ensure the laces are properly threaded through the eyelets and are not twisted. If laces are worn, consider replacing them.

Sole feels slippery.

Check the rubber sole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the sole with a damp cloth. If the sole is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.

Shoe feels stiff after getting wet.

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:

  • Cleaning: To maintain the suede, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth can be used sparingly. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
  • Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Avoid storing in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
