FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light recreational activities. They offer good grip but do not provide the specialized support needed for high-impact sports.
How should I clean the gum rubber sole?
Wipe the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt or scuff marks, a melamine foam sponge (like a magic eraser) or a dedicated sole cleaner can be used cautiously.
Will the leather upper stretch?
Leather has a natural ability to stretch slightly and conform to the shape of your foot over time, offering a more personalized fit with regular wear.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The leather and cushioning may be damaged by the washing machine's agitation and heat.
What is the main difference between Samba 62 and Samba 62 Super models?
While both are inspired by the original Samba, the 'Super' variants might feature slight design variations, potentially in materials or silhouette details, though they retain the core retro aesthetic.
How do I care for the green 3-Stripes?
Clean the 3-Stripes gently with a damp cloth. Avoid rubbing aggressively, as this could affect the color or material.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the leather and synthetic materials are not inherently waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but should not be submerged.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Natural creasing is normal with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees when not in use.
Gum sole appears dirty or scuffed
Gently wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Slight initial stiffness
The leather will soften with wear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in gradually.
Discoloration on leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture. If discoloration occurs, try a leather cleaner appropriate for the color.
