FAQs
Are the Samba OG trainers waterproof?
No, they are made of leather and are not intended for use in wet or rainy conditions. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the material.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While they are suitable for light activity, they do not have the technical cushioning required for heavy impact, running, or specialized sports.
How do I choose the right size?
The Samba OG fits true to size based on standard UK footwear sizing.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, although this specific variant is listed for males, the design is widely recognized as a unisex classic.
How do I protect the leather?
Applying a high-quality leather protectant spray can help repel dirt and minor moisture, extending the life of the material.
Troubleshooting
Stiff leather feel during first wear
Wear the shoes indoors for short durations with thicker socks to gently stretch and soften the leather.
Laces coming untied frequently
Try a double knot or ensure the laces are threaded tightly through the top eyelets to secure the fit.
Squeaking sounds on indoor surfaces
Ensure the outsoles are clean and free of debris; wipe the bottom of the soles with a dry cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking Them In: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather upper to mold naturally to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the finish.
- Outsole Maintenance: If the rubber sole picks up debris, use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the grooves to maintain traction.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading over time.
- Fit: These trainers typically follow standard UK sizing; ensure you choose your regular size for the best fit.
