Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maintain the premium materials and extend the lifespan of your Adidas Samba OG Shoes.
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede and leather protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt or dust, use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove debris. For leather sections, wipe with a damp, soft cloth.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains on suede, use a suede eraser. For tougher stains on leather, use a specialized leather cleaner following the product's instructions.
- Deep Cleaning (Suede): Use a dedicated suede cleaning solution and brush. Apply sparingly, work into a lather, and wipe clean. Allow to air dry completely, then brush the nap back into shape.
- Deep Cleaning (Leather): Apply a small amount of leather cleaner to a soft cloth and gently wipe the leather surfaces. Follow with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat or sunlight, as excessive heat can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid: Do not put these shoes in a washing machine or dryer. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
