FAQs

What materials are these trainers made of?

The trainers feature a premium leather upper, a textile lining, an espadrille sole, and a rubber outsole.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or the brand's official sizing guide. Consider your UK, EU, and US shoe size, and note that Samba models can sometimes run slightly large.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While inspired by the iconic Samba silhouette, these are primarily fashion trainers. The espadrille sole is not designed for high-impact athletic activities. They are best suited for casual wear and light walking.

How should I store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag.

What is the main difference between these and standard Sambas?

The primary difference is the collaborative design with Clot By Edison Chen, featuring unique aesthetic touches, and the use of an espadrille sole construction instead of a fully rubber one.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear leather shoes with espadrille soles in heavy rain or wet conditions, as it can damage the materials, especially the espadrille. Light moisture is manageable with proper care.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears scuffed or dirty.

Use a soft cloth dampened with water to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner can be applied following product instructions.

Espadrille sole feels stiff after getting wet.

Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.

Interior lining feels uncomfortable.

Ensure socks are being worn to provide an additional layer. If the discomfort persists, the shoes may require a break-in period. Consider using thin insoles if needed.

Traction on outsole seems reduced.

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting grip.
