FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?
The adidas Samba OG Liberty London Better Scarlet are primarily designed as lifestyle and fashion sneakers. While they offer comfort and grip for casual wear and light activities, they are not optimized for high-impact sports or performance running.
How do I clean the floral print without damaging it?
Gently wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. For tougher spots, use a very mild soap solution sparingly and always follow up with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.
What is the fit like for these Samba OG shoes?
The Samba OG generally offers a snug, true-to-size fit. Many users find they fit comfortably, but if you are between sizes or prefer more room, consider sizing up half a size.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the shoes offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Extended exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, as it can affect the materials and the printed design. It's best to wear them in dry conditions or use a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather and fabric.
What makes the Liberty London collaboration special?
The collaboration combines the iconic adidas Samba silhouette with exclusive, artistic floral patterns created by Liberty London, a renowned fabric and design company. This fusion results in a unique, stylish shoe that celebrates both sportswear heritage and artistic expression.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using the original shoe box or a dust bag can help protect them from dust and prevent potential damage to the material and print.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels slightly tight upon first wear.
Leather and textiles may stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house for short periods. If persistent discomfort occurs, consider a professional shoe stretcher or consult a cobbler.
Floral pattern appears to be fading or discolored.
This may be due to improper cleaning or exposure to sunlight. Ensure you are using only a damp cloth for cleaning and avoiding prolonged direct sun exposure. Use a shoe protector spray designed for delicate fabrics.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
New shoe soles can sometimes be slippery. Lightly scuffing the bottom of the soles on a rough surface (like concrete, outdoors) can improve grip. Ensure the surfaces you are walking on are dry.
