FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and style. While they offer good grip for everyday activities, they are not intended for high-impact sports or professional athletic performance.

How do I clean the animal pattern?

Gently spot clean the patterned areas with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the print.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

You can wear them with various types of socks, from no-show socks for a cleaner look to thicker athletic socks for added comfort. Choose based on your personal preference and the intended activity.

Do the Samba OG trainers run true to size?

Sizing can vary slightly between individuals. It is recommended to check the adidas size chart and consider trying them on if possible. Many users find they fit true to size, but some prefer to size up or down depending on foot width.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the gum sole offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and preserve their appearance.

What other colors or patterns are available in the Samba OG series?

The Samba OG series comes in a wide range of colors and patterns. You can find variants with different color combinations, materials, and designs, including striped and solid options.

Troubleshooting

Treading seems slippery.

Ensure the gum sole is clean and free from debris. For new shoes, the sole may become grippier after a short break-in period.

Discoloration or pattern fading.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with appropriate cleaners and consider a protective spray.

Laces becoming worn.

Replace laces with standard trainer laces. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid damaging eyelets.

Fit feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system. If the issue persists, consider the fit in relation to the specified UK size and compare with other footwear.
