FAQs

How do I clean the suede upper?

Regularly brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust and dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Samba OG "Alumina" IH4388 is designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. It lacks the advanced cushioning and support required for running or athletic activities.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The Samba OG features a lace-up closure for a customizable fit. Ensure you select your correct UK size. The suede will conform to your foot shape with wear.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions as it can lead to staining and damage. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is crafted entirely from soft, premium suede.

What does 'OG' stand for in Samba OG?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original', indicating that this model is a re-issue or faithful reproduction of the classic, original Samba design.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape. Keeping them in their original box or a dust bag is also recommended.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears scuffed or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a clean cloth, following product instructions, and allow to air dry.

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone

Ensure laces are the correct length. Try a different lacing knot, such as a double knot, for added security. Replace worn-out laces if necessary.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them with medium-weight socks for a few hours each day. If still uncomfortable, consider professional shoe stretching services.

Sole appears worn

The rubber sole is designed for durability, but heavy use will cause wear. For minor wear, ensure they are clean. Significant wear may affect traction and require replacement by a professional cobbler.
