FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The SAMBA OG shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized cushioning or support required for serious running.

How do I clean the white leather and suede parts?

For the white leather, use a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. For the suede, use a dry suede brush and a suede eraser for stains. Avoid using water on the suede as it can cause discoloration.

What is the fit like?

These shoes have a regular fit and are designed to be comfortable for most adult feet. It's recommended to consult size charts for the best fit, especially if you are between sizes.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, especially for the suede components. Consider waterproofing sprays designed for leather and suede.

What is the main difference between the Samba OG and other Samba models?

The 'OG' designation typically refers to original or vintage-inspired designs. The Samba OG often features classic materials, colorways, and design details that closely resemble the early iterations of the Samba silhouette.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides good traction for everyday use and light activities. It is made to withstand regular wear on various urban surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.

Suede areas getting dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Apply a suede protector spray to prevent future stains.

Leather creasing excessively

Some creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape and reduce deep creases.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a new pair of suitable length and material. Cotton or waxed laces are common replacements for trainers.
