FAQs
Are these shoes true to size for children?
adidas Originals shoes generally run true to size for children. It's recommended to measure your child's foot and refer to the specific adidas sizing guide, often found on the product page or adidas website, for the most accurate fit. These are listed in UK Kids sizes.
Can these Samba OG PS shoes be worn for sports?
Yes, with their durable construction, reinforced toe, and reliable rubber gum sole, these shoes are suitable for light sports, playground activities, and general active play. However, for specialized or high-impact sports, dedicated athletic footwear might offer more targeted support and performance features.
How do I best clean the white leather material?
To clean the white leather, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn stains or scuffs, use a leather-specific cleaner, applying it according to the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather.
What is an OrthoLite sockliner and what are its benefits?
An OrthoLite sockliner is an advanced insole technology that provides superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture management. For active children, this means long-lasting comfort, reduced odors, and a cooler, drier environment for their feet throughout the day.
Are these shoes suitable for both boys and girls?
Yes, the adidas Originals Samba OG PS features a unisex design. Its classic style and versatile nature make it a fashionable and practical choice for both boys and girls to wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear dirty quickly due to the white color.
The white leather upper is prone to showing dirt and scuffs. Implement a routine cleaning schedule, wiping them down regularly with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Applying a protective spray designed for leather footwear can also help repel dirt and water.
Laces frequently come undone during play.
For active children, ensure the laces are double-knotted for a more secure hold. You can also explore different lacing techniques that offer a tighter, more reliable fit. If the issue persists, consider replacing the laces with a slightly longer or more durable material to facilitate stronger knots.
Child reports discomfort after wearing the shoes for a while.
First, verify the shoe size is correct and there's adequate room for your child's toes to move. Ensure socks are appropriate and not bunching inside the shoe. While the OrthoLite sockliner provides comfort, new shoes may require a brief 'breaking-in' period. If discomfort persists, inspect for any internal defects or consult a footwear specialist.

Care
Maintaining the quality and appearance of your child's Samba OG PS shoes is important:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: For daily dirt, gently wipe the smooth leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, use a leather-specific cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the leather. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Cleaning the Rubber Gum Sole: The rubber gum sole can be cleaned with a brush and a mild soap-and-water solution to remove dirt and maintain traction.
- White Color Maintenance: Due to their white color, these shoes may require more frequent cleaning to maintain their pristine appearance. Consider applying a leather protectant spray to help repel water and stains.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use.
