FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

These Samba OG trainers are designed for everyday wear and light play activities. While they offer good grip and durability, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Adidas sizing chart for children's footwear. It's recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the provided measurements for the UK sizing. Ensure a snug but not overly tight fit.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these leather trainers. Machine washing can damage the leather, affect the adhesive, and compromise the shoe's structure. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the benefit of the elastic laces?

The elastic laces, combined with the hook-and-loop closure, offer a secure and adjustable fit that is easy for children to manage independently. They provide a snug feel without the need for traditional knot-tying.

What material is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of rubber, which is chosen for its durability and grip, providing reliable traction on a variety of surfaces.

How should I care for the leather upper?

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat and consider using a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.

What does 'Samba OG' mean?

'OG' stands for 'Original'. The Samba OG refers to a classic design that honors the original Samba models from Adidas's heritage, featuring iconic design elements like the T-toe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the hook-and-loop closure for a more secure or relaxed fit. The elastic laces provide some flexibility, but the primary adjustment is via the strap.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Hook-and-loop closure not sticking well

Ensure the hook-and-loop surfaces are clean and free of debris. Gently brush them with a stiff brush to remove lint or dirt. Avoid using fabric softener on the straps.

Inside feels uncomfortable

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks. The Ortholite sockliner provides cushioning, but proper socks enhance overall comfort. If discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or foreign objects.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable leather construction suitable for active children.
  • Comfortable cushioning with textile lining and Ortholite sockliner.
  • Good traction provided by the rubber outsole for various surfaces.
  • Timeless Samba design appealing to both kids and parents.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for very rigorous sports activities.
  • Leather requires some care to maintain its appearance.
  • Elastic laces may eventually lose some elasticity with extended use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex children. The elastic lace and hook-and-loop closure system is designed for ease of use. The regular fit accommodates most standard children's foot shapes.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for this type of material. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
  • Laces and Closures: Check the elastic laces periodically for wear. The hook-and-loop closure can be cleaned by gently brushing away any debris that may stick to it.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush to maintain grip and appearance.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's shape.
