FAQs
Are the Samba OG trainers suitable for running?
No, these are fashion trainers designed for casual, everyday wear rather than athletic running performance.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Generally, yes, but because they feature a low-profile design, those with wider feet may prefer to try a half-size larger for extra room.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the trainers include standard insoles, many users successfully swap them out for custom orthotics if additional arch support is needed.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are made of leather which provides some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing stiff or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform and soften to your foot shape.
Difficulty maintaining grip on smooth surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is free from debris and buildup by wiping the textured pattern with a damp brush.
Laces coming undone frequently
Use a double knot technique or replace them with higher-friction laces if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the laces are loosened entirely before sliding your foot in, then tighten from the toe up to lock your midfoot in place. Since these are unisex trainers, check your specific UK size carefully against the provided sizing chart to ensure optimal comfort. For maintenance, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and use a specialized leather cleaner periodically. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue bonds to weaken.
