FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The adidas Originals Samba 62 Super trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. While the gum sole offers good grip, they are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
This guide specifically details the UK 8.5 size. It is recommended to consult the adidas sizing chart or try them on in-store if possible to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary slightly between models.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers. It can damage the leather, adhesives, and the overall structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper of these Samba 62 Super trainers is made from soft, premium leather.
What does 'low shoes' mean in the product description?
'Low shoes' refers to the cut of the footwear, meaning they are cut below the ankle, as opposed to high-top shoes which extend above the ankle.
How does this model compare to the original Samba?
The Samba 62 Super is an iteration of the OG Samba, featuring a similar streamlined silhouette and low profile, but with specific updates to materials and cushioning for modern comfort while retaining the classic aesthetic.
What other colorways or sizes are available?
This guide focuses on the Grey/Blue colourway in UK 8.5. The Samba 62 Super series may be available in other colours and sizes. Please refer to the brand's official product listings for a complete overview of available variants.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting it. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might also help.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. This will help to rehydrate and soften the leather, improving comfort and preventing cracks.
Gum sole is dirty or discolored
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently clean the sole. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser or specialized sole cleaner might be effective, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are worn or dirty
Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Clean existing laces by handwashing them with mild detergent and air-drying.

- Soles: Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution if necessary. Ensure they are dry before wearing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the leather upper.
