FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

While the Samba has roots as an indoor football trainer, this specific 'OG Animal Print' model is designed for lifestyle and casual wear. Its pony hair upper is not intended for rigorous athletic activities.

How do I clean the animal print pony hair?

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dirt. For stains, lightly dab with a damp cloth and a tiny bit of mild soap, then air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or heavy scrubbing.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper features a full cheetah print pony hair, complemented by leather details. The pony hair itself is a type of treated leather.

Do they run true to size?

Yes, these adidas Samba OG shoes are designed with a regular fit. You should generally order your standard adult UK shoe size.

Can I wear them in the rain?

It's best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions. The pony hair material can be sensitive to moisture. If they do get wet, air dry them thoroughly away from direct heat.

What type of lining do these shoes have?

They feature a comfortable synthetic lining for enhanced wearability.

What is the outsole made of?

The shoes are equipped with a durable rubber outsole, providing reliable traction.

Troubleshooting

Pony hair losing its texture or appearing matted.

Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the hair. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh cleaning.

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have the correct size. The Sambas offer a regular fit, so adjust laces for optimal comfort. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different sock thickness.

Minor stains on the pony hair upper.

Gently spot clean with a very lightly damp cloth and a minuscule amount of mild soap. Dab, don't rub, and air dry immediately. Avoid saturating the material.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes occur between the insole and outsole. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside of the shoe with talcum powder, and reinserting the insole. If it persists, ensure the laces are tied securely.

Care Instructions

The pony hair and leather construction requires gentle care to maintain its appearance.

  1. Cleaning the Pony Hair Upper:
  • *Gentle Brush*: Use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush or a soft toothbrush) to gently brush off loose dirt or dust in the direction of the hair.
  • *Damp Cloth (Spot Clean)*: For minor marks, lightly dampen a clean, soft cloth with water (and a tiny drop of mild soap, if necessary) and dab the affected area. Do *not* rub vigorously, as this can damage the hair.
  • *Avoid Harsh Chemicals*: Do not use harsh detergents, abrasive cleaners, or direct water streams, which can strip natural oils and damage the material.
  1. Cleaning Leather Details:
  • Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a leather-specific cleaner as directed by the product.
  1. Drying:
  • Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  1. Protection:
  • Consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for pony hair or delicate leather to add a layer of protection against moisture and stains. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  1. Storage:
  • Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
