FAQs
Are these suitable for sports?
No, the Adidas Samba OG - Animal - Black is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and not for athletic performance.
How do I clean the pony hair section?
Gently brush the pony hair with a soft brush to remove dust. For stains, spot clean with a slightly damp cloth, being careful not to saturate it.
What size should I order if I'm usually a UK 9.5?
Sizing can vary between models. It is recommended to consult the Adidas sizing chart or try them on in-store if possible, as the Samba OG fit can be snug for some.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather and rubber offer some protection, it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials, especially the pony hair.
What is the main difference between this and other Samba models?
The primary difference is the premium cow leather upper combined with a distinctive pony hair finish featuring an animal pattern, setting it apart from standard leather or suede Samba models.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more often if the shoes are frequently exposed to dry conditions. Always use a product specifically designed for leather.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces.
Pony hair appearing matted
Gently brush the pony hair with a soft brush in the direction of the hair's growth to restore its texture. Avoid getting the hair excessively wet.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction. Check if the insole is properly seated. A light dusting of baby powder under the insole can sometimes help.
Discoloration on leather
If the leather is scuffed or discolored, try a matching color leather polish or cream. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
