FAQs

Are the Samba OG Shoes suitable for sports?

While inspired by sports heritage, the Samba OG Shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Use a specialized suede brush or eraser to gently remove dirt and marks. For tougher stains, consider a suede-specific cleaning solution. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and allow to dry naturally.

What is the 'COLD CEMENT' construction mentioned?

This refers to the manufacturing method where the outsole is bonded to the upper using adhesive at room temperature, contributing to the shoe's durability and flexibility.

Do these shoes come in different widths?

The Samba OG Shoes are typically offered in a regular fit. Specific width options may vary by release and region, so checking product details for individual listings is recommended.

How should I care for the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner designed for footwear. Avoid excessive moisture.

What do the tartan-inspired graphic details signify?

These details add a unique visual flair to the shoe, referencing classic patterns and providing a distinctive aesthetic touch to the iconic Samba design.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The shoes are not waterproof. While a suede protector can offer some resistance, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, especially for the suede elements. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable on first wear.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.

Suede material shows water marks or dirt.

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Use a suede eraser for dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains. Apply a protective spray after cleaning.

Laces fraying or breaking.

Replace laces with a standard flat shoelace of a similar length. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly to avoid undue stress.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For slick surfaces, consider using a product designed to add grip to rubber soles, though this may alter the original feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
