FAQs

What makes the Samba 62 different from the original Samba?

The Samba 62 is an all-new design that reflects on the Samba's archival evolution. It features a 'Brown Strata' suede upper, 'Preloved Yellow' leather 3-Stripes, a leather lining, a leather pull tab, and wedged foam midsoles for enhanced comfort, along with rubber cut-outs for grip. These are notable differences from the OG Samba.

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

The adidas Originals Samba 62 is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker. While they offer good grip for casual walking, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities or specialized sports.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain the nap. For stains, a suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, and for tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following instructions carefully.

What is the fit like?

The fit is generally true to size for most users, but it's always recommended to check the size guide and consider trying them on if possible, as the wedged midsole and updated materials might feel different from other Samba models.

What should I wear with the Samba 62?

These sneakers pair well with casual outfits. Consider wearing them with jeans, chinos, shorts, or athletic-inspired trousers for a stylish, retro look.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the suede and leather construction offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and prolong their lifespan.

What does 'Brown Strata' and 'Preloved Yellow' refer to?

'Brown Strata' refers to the specific shade and texture of the brown nubuck/suede used for the upper. 'Preloved Yellow' describes the vintage-inspired shade of yellow used for the leather 3-Stripes and other accents.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser. For stubborn marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on the suede.

Reduced grip on the sole

Check the rubber cut-out areas on the sole for any trapped dirt, mud, or debris. Clean these areas with a brush or a damp cloth to restore traction.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure you have selected the correct UK shoe size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. If discomfort persists, consider using insoles for added cushioning or arch support.

Color transfer from leather to socks

This can occasionally happen with new leather items. It's recommended to wear darker colored socks initially until any potential excess dye has been released. The issue typically subsides with wear.
