FAQs
Are the adidas Samba OG shoes unisex?
Yes, the Samba OG is a classic design suitable for all genders.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are made of leather, which is naturally water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather protector spray if you plan to wear them in wet conditions.
How do I determine my size?
The Samba OG typically fits true to size. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to lean toward the larger size if you have a wider foot.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesive bonding the sole to the upper. Always clean them by hand.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from premium leather, providing both a classic aesthetic and durability.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather toe box
This is normal for leather trainers. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shape.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or look into replacing them with flat cotton laces for better friction.
Outsole losing grip
Clean the rubber tread with a soft brush and warm soapy water to remove accumulated dirt and debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OGs last, start by using a shoe horn when putting them on to protect the heel structure. For compatibility, they fit standard sizing, but if you prefer thicker socks, you may consider testing your fit carefully. To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe down the leather upper, avoiding harsh chemicals. If the trainers get wet, let them air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or stiffen over time.
