FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing sports?

While the Samba OG has roots in football, it is now primarily a lifestyle sneaker. It is suitable for light activities like casual kickabouts, but not recommended for intensive athletic performance or competitive sports.

How do I clean the suede part of the shoe?

For the suede toe, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. A suede eraser can help with marks. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals directly on suede.

What does 'OG' stand for?

'OG' stands for 'Original,' indicating that this version is a revisit or re-release of the classic, original Samba design.

Are Samba OGs true to size?

The Samba OG typically features a 'regular fit,' meaning it generally fits true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. We recommend trying them on if possible.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

The leather and suede materials are not fully waterproof. While light rain may not cause immediate damage, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended and can potentially stain or damage the materials. Consider a water-resistant spray for added protection.

What are the main materials used in this shoe?

The adidas Originals Samba OG features a smooth leather upper, a suede toe overlay, a synthetic lining, and a durable rubber gum outsole.

Troubleshooting

Shoes appear dirty quickly, especially the white leather and suede.

Regularly wipe the leather with a damp cloth and gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For stubborn marks, use appropriate leather or suede cleaners as soon as possible.

Suede toe looks matted or discolored.

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For minor discolorations, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid scrubbing vigorously or saturating with water.

Shoes feel a bit stiff or uncomfortable when new.

The leather upper may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Sometimes the insole can rub against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and possibly applying a thin layer of baby powder or fabric softener underneath the insole.

Care Instructions:

  5. Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for both leather and suede to repel water and stains.
