FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are fashion lifestyle sneakers. While comfortable for walking, they do not offer the support or impact protection required for running.

How does the sizing compare to standard Samba trainers?

They generally follow standard adidas sizing, but the nylon material may offer a slightly different feel than leather models. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to opt for the larger size.

Are the materials used in this collaboration different from standard Sambas?

Yes, this collaboration specifically features nylon construction and unique colorways distinct from the classic leather versions.

How do I store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading and to preserve the shape of the upper.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is highly recommended to avoid the washing machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the delicate detailing and the bond between the sole and the upper.

Is the unisex sizing consistent?

Yes, but always check the specific UK size conversion provided on the shoe label to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the nylon upper

Gently dab the area with a mix of lukewarm water and mild detergent using a soft microfiber cloth.

Creasing at the toe box

Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structural integrity and shape of the toe box.

Gum sole discoloration

Wipe the gum outsole with a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a mild solvent to restore its original appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no "setup" beyond standard lacing adjustments to suit your personal comfort. Because the upper features nylon components, it is recommended to keep them away from harsh abrasives.

To care for your trainers:

  1. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each wear.
  2. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a clean cloth, dabbing the fabric gently rather than scrubbing hard.
  3. Always air-dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the material or fade the colors.
  4. Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for synthetic fabric footwear to protect the nylon.
