FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Originals Samba OG generally fits true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear thick socks, some users recommend sizing up by a half size.

Can I use these for running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers. They do not contain the technical cushioning or stability features required for running.

How do I protect the leather?

Applying a high-quality leather conditioner periodically will help keep the material supple and prevent cracking.

Is the sole non-marking?

Yes, the traditional gum rubber outsole is designed to be non-marking, making it suitable for indoor surfaces.

What is the best way to store them?

Store them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from fading or drying out.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural characteristic of high-quality leather; using shoe trees after wear can help the shoe retain its shape.

Dirty suede overlays

Use a dry, soft-bristle brush to gently lift dirt; avoid using water on suede as it can cause discoloration.

Squeaking sounds while walking

This is often caused by trapped moisture or a loose insole; ensure the interior is completely dry and reseat the insole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality materials feel premium and durable
  • Versatile design matches well with various outfits
  • Leather construction conforms comfortably to the foot
  • Iconic, timeless look that stays relevant in fashion

Cons

  • Minimal arch support compared to modern running shoes
  • Leather may require break-in time for maximum comfort
  • Light-colored suede overlays require careful cleaning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Samba OGs stay in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper consists of leather and suede, avoid machine washing, which can damage the materials. Instead, wipe the leather sections with a clean, damp cloth and use a specialized soft-bristle brush to remove dust or debris from the suede overlays. For stain removal on suede, use a dedicated suede eraser. To maintain shape, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if you intend to store them for long periods. These shoes fit true to size, but the leather will stretch slightly, so ensure a snug fit when initially trying them on.
