FAQs

Are the adidas Samba OG shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally run true to size, but those who prefer a roomier fit or plan to wear thick socks may consider going up a half size.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash leather shoes as it can damage the material and the shoe's structure.

Are these suitable for playing actual football?

While originally designed for football, the modern OG version is intended for lifestyle and streetwear, and does not provide the same support or performance features as current professional football boots.

What material is the upper made of?

The Samba OG typically features a premium leather upper, though some specific variants may use suede.

How do I maintain the shape of the shoe?

Store your shoes in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or simply stuff them with paper when not in use to help maintain their silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels too stiff after first wear

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the material to gradually soften and mold to your foot shape.

Surface scuffs appearing on the leather

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently buff out minor marks.

Sole grip feels slippery when new

The rubber outsole may have a factory finish; walking on rough surfaces like concrete for a short time will help break in the grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless, versatile design that pairs well with casual outfits
  • Durable leather construction for long-term wear
  • Reliable traction provided by the rubber outsole
  • Comfortable fit for daily use

Cons

  • Leather material may feel stiff initially
  • Low-profile design offers less arch support than performance athletic shoes
  • Limited color palette focuses on classic aesthetics rather than bold modern colors

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Samba OGs last as long as possible, regular maintenance is key. Since these are crafted with leather, avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial detergents. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after each use. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape. For sizing, the Samba OG generally fits true to size, but we recommend trying them on with your preferred daily socks to ensure the snug, secure fit you desire.
