adidas Originals Samba OG - White - UK 3

The full-grain leather upper offers some natural resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray for added protection in damp conditions.

These trainers are listed in UK adult sizing. We generally recommend trying them on if possible, or referring to adidas' official sizing chart. Leather can stretch slightly over time, so a snug fit initially is often ideal.

While the Samba has a sports heritage, the Samba OG Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle. They are not engineered with the cushioning or support required for high-impact sports like running or intense training.

The frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. For daily wear, a quick wipe down after use can be beneficial. A more thorough cleaning and conditioning is recommended every few weeks or as needed when they appear dirty or dry.

Remove the laces from the trainers. You can hand-wash them in a bowl of warm water with a small amount of mild detergent or soap. Gently scrub, rinse thoroughly, and then air dry completely before re-threading.

With proper care and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, the violet accents should retain their color well. Harsh cleaning chemicals should be avoided on colored areas.

Apply a good quality leather conditioner. Clean the trainers first, allow them to dry, then gently rub in the conditioner with a soft cloth.

For light scuffs, try a 'magic eraser' type sponge very gently. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

Leather shoes will naturally crease with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not wearing them. Store them properly to maintain shape. Regular conditioning can also help keep the leather supple.

The textured rubber sole offers good grip, but no sole is infallible. Be mindful on wet, icy, or very smooth surfaces. Ensure soles are clean of debris or dirt, which can reduce traction.

Allow trainers to air out after each wear. Consider using shoe deodorizers, baking soda sachets, or cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odors. Remove insoles occasionally for separate airing.
