They feature classic Samba elements like a reinforced T-toe and a gum rubber outsole for grip, stemming from their indoor football shoe origins.

Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. Ensure the shoes fit properly to minimize excessive creasing. Stuffing them with paper when not in use can help maintain shape.
Gum sole discoloration
Minor discoloration can sometimes be cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized sole cleaner or a gently applied magic eraser might help.
Print fading
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning chemicals, which can cause fading. Gentle cleaning methods will preserve the print.
T-toe reinforcement wearing
The T-toe is designed for durability. If signs of wear appear, ensure you are not scuffing the area excessively during wear.
