FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
While the Samba OG has roots in sports heritage, they are primarily designed as lifestyle and casual wear shoes, not for rigorous athletic training.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas or consult your usual shoe size. This guide specifies UK 8.5.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
The leather upper offers some protection, but these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may cause water to penetrate and potentially damage the leather. It is best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every few months, or whenever the material appears dry, to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
What is the main difference between Samba OG and other Samba models?
The Samba OG typically refers to models that closely replicate the original designs from the past, often featuring premium materials and classic branding.
How do I clean the coloured stripes or accents?
Use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water for the coloured accents, being careful not to scrub too aggressively to avoid removing colour.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in leather
Natural creasing can occur with wear. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Discoloration from water
If shoes get wet, dry them naturally away from heat. Apply a leather conditioner after drying to restore suppleness.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber soles are clean. For improved grip on specific surfaces, consider specialized sole grips or cleaning the soles with a mild abrasive pad.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar style and length. Consider wax-coated laces for increased durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These shoes require no setup upon purchase; they are ready to wear. They are compatible with most casual attire.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the suede or nubuck accents if present in specific Samba variations.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain shape and prevent dust accumulation.
