FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The adidas Samba OG trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and urban lifestyle. While comfortable for walking, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The best way to ensure the right fit is to try them on. They should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. Compare with your usual UK shoe size.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The leather and synthetic materials offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to dry them thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the material of the iconic three stripes?

The iconic three stripes are typically made from synthetic material or leather, matching or complementing the main upper material of the shoe.

How often should I condition the leather?

Conditioning frequency depends on usage and environment. Typically, conditioning once or twice a year is sufficient for maintaining the leather's condition.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the "Core Black" colorway, the Samba OG model is available in various color options from adidas.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try them on again. If still uncomfortable, consider if a different size might be more appropriate.

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Allow it to absorb before wearing.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris. For persistent issues on specific surfaces, consider if the shoes are appropriate for the conditions.

Discoloration from prolonged sun exposure

Avoid leaving the shoes in direct sunlight for extended periods. Store them in a shaded area or their box.
