FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Samba OG generally fits true to standard UK sizing, though the leather structure may feel firm initially.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Clean them by hand only.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
The Samba OG is a classic lifestyle trainer with a flat sole; it does not offer the advanced arch support found in specialized running shoes.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
They are suitable for standard autumn and spring conditions, but they are not insulated for heavy snow or freezing temperatures.
How do I keep the white parts clean?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush to gently scrub the white detailing without saturating the leather.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows light scuffs
Use a leather conditioner or a matching cream polish to buff out minor surface marks.
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lace-up closure to be slightly looser and ensure your socks are not overly thick during the initial break-in period.
Outsole has lost grip due to dirt buildup
Clean the rubber sole grooves with a stiff-bristled brush and warm soapy water to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OGs maintain their quality, start by ensuring you have the correct size; the leather will slightly soften and mold to your foot shape after a few wears. For daily care, wipe away loose dirt with a soft, dry brush or cloth. If the leather gets stained, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to dab the surface gently—avoid soaking the shoes. Keep them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or shrink. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their original shape.
