FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash your Samba trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the safest way to maintain the material.

Do these trainers run true to size?

The Samba series generally has a snug, slim fit. If you prefer a looser feel or plan to wear thick socks, you may consider sizing up.

Can I wear these for sports?

While originally designed for indoor football, these trainers are now primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear.

What is the material of the upper?

This specific variant features a high-quality synthetic faux leather upper.

How do I keep the gum sole clean?

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft brush to remove debris from the grooves.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff when new

Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the synthetic material to flex and conform to your foot.

Surface scuffs on the upper

Gently wipe the area with a damp cloth and a mild detergent solution to lift surface marks.

Squeaking sounds while walking

Ensure the insole is properly seated inside the shoe; if it persists, use a small amount of talcum powder beneath the insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Samba Trainers last, keep them away from harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the synthetic finish. Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after use. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild soapy water and let them air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the faux leather from cracking. Given their minimalist design, they pair exceptionally well with denim jeans, casual trousers, or athletic shorts, making them highly compatible with most casual wardrobes.
