FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made entirely of soft suede.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a soft-bristled brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions. Avoid excessive water.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These shoes are designed for everyday casual wear and urban environments, not for high-impact sports. They offer good traction but lack advanced athletic cushioning and support.
What is the primary benefit of the rubber sole?
The traditional rubber sole provides excellent traction and durability for everyday walking and stability.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as they can be easily damaged and stained. Applying a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
What does 'OG' in Samba OG stand for?
'OG' typically stands for 'Original', indicating that this model is a faithful reproduction of the classic Samba design.
How do I ensure a proper fit?
Use the lace-up closure to adjust the tightness. The shoe should feel snug but not uncomfortable, with enough room in the toe box.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free of debris. The traction may also decrease with significant wear; consider professional sole inspection if the issue persists.
Laces are worn out
Replace the laces with new ones of a similar length and style. Many athletic footwear retailers offer replacement laces.
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and adjust them for a more comfortable fit. Suede can stretch slightly over time with wear.
