What is the primary material of the upper?

These are fashion sneakers designed for style and comfort in casual settings. They are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.

The fold-over tongue is a signature design element inherited from the original Samba models, adding a distinctive retro aesthetic to the shoe.

How do I care for the gum rubber sole?

Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth. Mild soap and water can be used for tougher dirt, but avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Pony hair looks matted or dirty.

Gently brush the pony hair with a soft-bristled brush, moving in the direction of the hair. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and a very mild soap solution, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the material.

Leather accents appear scuffed.

Use a specialized leather cleaner for minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, consider a leather repair kit or consult a professional.

Soles are discolored.

Clean the gum rubber soles with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.

Shoes feel stiff initially.

This is common with new leather and premium materials. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.
