FAQs
What is the primary material of the Samba 62 Super?
The primary material for the upper of the adidas Originals Samba 62 Super is smooth leather.
Are these shoes suitable for playing football?
While inspired by football heritage, the Samba 62 Super is designed as a lifestyle shoe and is not intended for professional or intense football play. They are suitable for casual kickabouts.
How should I clean the gum sole?
Wipe the gum sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What does the '62 print signify?
The '62 print refers to the year 1962, celebrating the original design and heritage of the Samba silhouette.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The leather upper can be protected with a suitable water-repellent spray. However, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain as excessive moisture can damage the leather and sole.
What is the fit like?
These shoes have a regular fit designed for standard foot shapes. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing charts for the best fit.
What is the difference between Samba and Samba 62 Super?
The Samba 62 Super is a specific re-release that harks back to the classic 1962 Samba design, often featuring distinct archival details and materials compared to other Samba variations.
Troubleshooting
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace with new, suitable laces. Consider waxed laces for added durability.
Leather appearing dry or scuffed
Apply a leather conditioner to moisturize and a leather balm or polish to cover minor scuffs. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the gum sole is clean and free from debris. For specific slick surfaces, consider a light scuffing of the sole or using traction-enhancing products if necessary, though this may alter the shoe's appearance.
Inner lining causing discomfort
Wear with appropriate socks. If persistent, consider a thin insole for added comfort, ensuring it does not alter the fit significantly.
