FAQs

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the adidas Originals Samba OG is designed as a unisex product suitable for all adults.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as the moisture and heat can damage the leather, suede, and adhesive bonds.

How should I clean the suede part of the shoe?

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede eraser.

Do these shoes provide good arch support?

The Samba OG is a flat, lifestyle shoe. If you require significant arch support, consider adding an aftermarket orthotic insole.

Are they true to size?

They generally fit true to size, but the silhouette is slim. If you have wide feet, you may find more comfort by sizing up by half a size.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. To minimize it, use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the original shape.

Scuffing on the suede toe

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft suede brush to gently lift dirt and buff out minor scuff marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Samba OGs stay in top condition, follow these care steps:

  1. Initial Protection: Apply a leather and suede-safe water/stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect the materials from the elements.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt from the suede toe area. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the leather upper. Avoid machine washing, as it can damage the glue and leather texture.
  3. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
  4. Fit: These trainers typically run regular, but if you have a wider foot, consider trying a half-size up for increased room in the toe box.
