Product Information
Full details
The adidas Samba OG in White and Green is an essential choice for individuals seeking a classic, versatile sneaker that blends vintage terrace aesthetic with modern casual style. Its primary benefit lies in the iconic low-profile silhouette and high-quality leather construction that provides lasting comfort and a timeless look for everyday wear. A notable caveat is that the slim fit and low arch support may require a break-in period or alternative insoles for those who prioritize high-performance cushioning for long-distance walking.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Most users find the Samba OG runs true to size, but the slim cut can feel tight for those with wider feet.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole, significantly shortening the lifespan of the shoe.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
No, the leather is water-resistant but not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray to repel light moisture and stains.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Regularly wipe the white areas with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather eraser for scuffs to maintain the crisp look.
Are these suitable for sports?
While the Samba was originally designed for indoor football, modern iterations are primarily lifestyle footwear. They lack the technical support found in current athletic gear.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. To minimize, use shoe trees when the sneakers are not in use to help retain their shape.
Shoes feeling too tight
The Samba OG has a slim fit. Try loosening the laces significantly before putting them on, or consider thinner socks to allow the leather to stretch and contour to your foot over time.
Gum sole discoloration
Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water to gently scrub the gum outsole to remove debris and restore its original color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba OG sneakers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each use to prevent dirt buildup. For tougher stains on the green stripes, use a gentle leather cleaner.
- Maintenance: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the green accents.
- Lacing: The shoes feature standard lacing; adjust the tightness across the midfoot to suit your specific foot width for a more secure fit.
- Insoles: If you require extra comfort, the provided insole can be swapped out for a third-party orthotic, though the slim design of the shoe may limit the thickness of the replacement.
