FAQs
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Samba OG generally fits true to size for most users, but the slim profile can feel snug for those with wider feet.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the suede and leather components. Always clean by hand using appropriate leather and suede care products.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is a mix of smooth leather, textile, and suede overlays.
Are these suitable for intense sports?
While inspired by indoor soccer shoes, they are primarily marketed as casual trainers and lack the advanced support found in modern performance athletic gear.
Do the laces come pre-laced?
Yes, they typically arrive laced in the factory style, but they are fully adjustable to accommodate your preferred tightness.
What does the gum rubber outsole offer?
The gum rubber outsole provides superior grip and the classic, authentic look associated with traditional Samba models.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede sections
Use a dry suede brush to gently work out loose dirt. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
Creasing at the toe box
This is normal for leather footwear. Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain shape and minimize deep creases.
Outsole loses traction over time
Check the tread for debris or buildup. Clean the gum rubber with a soft brush and warm soapy water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this model features suede components, proper maintenance is vital for longevity. Before wearing your pair in damp conditions, it is recommended to apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray. To clean the leather portions, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap; for the suede overlays, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap. Ensure the shoes are kept away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather and adhesives from drying out. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the Cream White colorway.
