FAQs
Are the Samba OG trainers waterproof?
No, they are made primarily of leather and are not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray if you live in a damp climate.
Can I use these for running?
While they are comfortable, they are not designed for running. We recommend specialized athletic footwear for high-impact activities.
How do I know my size?
The Samba OG typically fits true to size. Refer to the UK adult sizing guide to select your standard trainer size.
Can the insoles be replaced?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if you require additional arch support.
What is the best way to clean the white accents?
Use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap to gently wipe the white areas, then pat dry with a clean, soft towel.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Try a double knot or replace with slightly shorter laces if the current ones are too long.
Creasing on the leather upper
This is natural for leather; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing.
Dirt buildup in the textured sole
Use a toothpick or a firm-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the tread pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the laces are adjusted to your specific foot shape to prevent heel slippage.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the leather. For deeper stains, use a mild leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature standard adult sizing; always verify your specific UK size for the best fit.
