FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These Samba OG J trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good grip and durability for everyday activities like walking and light play, they are not specifically designed for high-impact sports requiring specialized athletic footwear.

How do I clean the white leather upper?

Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally and consider using a leather conditioner to keep the material soft.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The materials, particularly the leather and suede, can be damaged by the washing machine's agitation and heat.

What is the purpose of the gum rubber outsole?

The gum rubber outsole provides excellent traction and grip on various surfaces, preventing slips. It is also known for its durability, contributing to the longevity of the shoe.

How do the suede overlays affect care?

Suede requires specific care. Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a suede eraser for marks. Avoid getting suede wet, as it can alter its texture and color. It's best to protect suede areas from heavy rain or mud.

What does 'OG' mean in the product name?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original' or 'Originals,' indicating that this edition is a faithful reproduction or closely resembles the original design of the Samba shoe from its inception.

Are these trainers unisex?

Yes, the design and sizing of the Samba OG J are intended to be unisex, making them suitable for both boys and girls.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods to gradually break them in. The leather will soften and mold to the foot over time.

Gum sole appears discolored.

The gum rubber can sometimes attract dirt. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, try a magic eraser, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Suede toe cap/heel counter looks dirty.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser is recommended. Avoid using water on suede components.

Care Instructions:

  • Suede Overlays: Use a suede brush or a dry cloth to gently remove dirt and debris. For stains, a specialized suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water on suede.
  • Outsole: Clean the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dried thoroughly.
  • Lining: Allow shoes to air dry naturally if they become damp. Do not place near direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag, to protect from dust and sunlight.
