FAQs

Are the adidas Samba OG trainers suitable for running?

While the Samba OG has roots in training, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized cushioning and support required for serious running.

How do I clean the burgundy accents?

For the burgundy leather or suede accents, use methods appropriate for the material. For leather, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. For suede, use a suede brush and avoid excess moisture.

What is the difference between Samba OG and other Samba models?

The 'OG' designation typically refers to models that are closer to the original design and specifications of the classic Samba, often using premium materials and traditional colorways.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

We recommend trying them on if possible. Generally, the Samba OG fits true to size for most people. Consider the width of your foot; they have a classic, relatively narrow fit.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but the suede and gum sole are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to protect the materials.

What does 'gum sole' mean?

A gum sole is made from rubber and has a characteristic tan or light brown color. It provides good grip and flexibility, and is a classic feature of many Adidas trainers, including the Samba.

How should I store my Samba OG trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.

Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. Ensure the suede is completely dry before brushing.

Leather showing creases or minor scuffs

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Gum sole yellowing

Yellowing can occur over time due to oxidation. While difficult to reverse completely, keeping them clean and stored properly can slow the process.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is selected. Wearing appropriate socks and breaking in the shoes gradually can help alleviate rubbing. Check for any internal seam issues.

Compatibility: The Samba OG is a versatile casual shoe. It pairs well with a wide range of clothing, including jeans, shorts, track pants, and casual trousers.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild leather cleaner sparingly.
  2. Cleaning Suede: Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid water on suede sections.
  3. Gum Sole: Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth or a specialized sole cleaner. Minor scuffs can sometimes be buffed out.
