FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

While they originated on the football pitch, they are now best suited for lifestyle and casual everyday wear rather than high-intensity competitive sports.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can damage the suede upper and the adhesive used in the construction. Clean them by hand only.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Samba OG is designed for a snug fit. If your child prefers a bit of extra room for growth, consider checking the specific measurements for the UK 5.5 size.

How do I protect the suede?

Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first use to help repel liquids and dirt.

Is the sole non-marking?

Yes, the traditional gum rubber outsole is generally safe for indoor court surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material.

Laces coming undone frequently

Double-knot the laces or replace them with slightly shorter, high-friction cotton laces.

Creasing at the toe box

This is normal for suede footwear; use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the original shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable suede material holds up well to daily play
  • Iconic, timeless design that looks great with any outfit
  • Gum rubber outsole offers reliable grip on multiple surfaces
  • Lightweight construction prevents foot fatigue

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining if not protected
  • Lighter cream-coloured details show dirt more easily
  • Limited water resistance compared to synthetic leather trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Samba OG trainers, perform a quick check of the fit once the child is wearing socks. The shoes should feel snug but not restrictive. For care, we recommend using a suede-specific brush to remove dry dirt and debris after use. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the suede texture and compromise the glue bonding. If the shoes become damp, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or warp.
