FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for playing football or other competitive sports?

While durable for active play like 'kicking a ball around', the adidas Samba OG Kids' Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and general activities. For competitive sports, we recommend specialized athletic footwear that offers enhanced support and traction.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

These are `UK size 6` kids' trainers. We recommend measuring your child's foot length and consulting the official adidas sizing chart. It's often advised to leave a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe becomes a tripping hazard.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended for these trainers due to the `Leather` and suede materials. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the specific care instructions provided for spot cleaning and hand care.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper features a combination of high-quality `Leather` and suede. This blend offers both durability and the iconic texture associated with the Samba style.

How can I prevent scuffs and scratches on the white leather?

While complete prevention is difficult with active kids, regularly cleaning the trainers and applying a protective leather conditioner or spray can help minimize and mitigate scuffs. Avoid abrasive surfaces where possible, and wipe down immediately after outdoor play.

Is the fit true to size for children?

Yes, these trainers are designed with a `Regular fit`. Most users find them true to their standard `UK size 6` for kids. If your child is between sizes, you might consider trying on or referring to customer reviews for specific fit feedback.

Do these trainers offer good ankle support?

The adidas Samba OG is a low-top trainer, providing standard ankle mobility rather than high ankle support. It offers adequate support for general walking and light activities but is not designed for activities requiring extensive ankle stabilization.

Troubleshooting

Trainers appear dirty or stained quickly, especially the white parts.

The white color and suede material are prone to showing dirt. Regularly wipe leather with a damp cloth and gently brush suede. Consider applying a protective spray immediately after purchase to repel dirt and moisture.

Laces come undone frequently during wear.

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary for added security. Check laces for any signs of wear or fraying and replace them if they are damaged, as worn laces are more likely to untie.

Trainers feel too loose or too tight on the child's foot.

Adjust the lace closure. For a snugger fit, pull laces tighter across the instep. For more room, loosen the laces. Also, ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks (e.g., not overly thick or thin) for the best fit.

Suede areas look matted, flattened, or discolored.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt or debris. Brush in short, light strokes in the direction of the nap. For deeper discoloration, a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear may be needed.

A strong odor develops inside the trainers.

Ensure trainers are aired out after each wear. Remove insoles if possible to allow for better ventilation. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors. Avoid wearing the same pair every day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply lace up the trainers to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Adjust the laces to ensure the foot feels snug but not overly tight, allowing for natural movement.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for `kids` and feature a `Unisex` style, making them suitable for all children. This specific variant is `UK size 6`. They are compatible with various casual outfits and light athletic activities.

Care: The `Leather` and suede upper requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity. Proper care will help keep them looking 'fresh'.

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather portions with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  2. Suede Care: For suede sections, use a soft brush designed for suede to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. Brush in one direction to maintain texture.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains on leather, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions. For suede, use a specific suede cleaner sparingly, following its guidelines.
  4. Drying: Always air dry trainers away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight) to prevent material damage, cracking, or discoloration.
  5. Protection: Consider using a protective spray suitable for both leather and suede to guard against water, stains, and environmental elements. Apply periodically.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation over time.
