FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The Samba OG trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good traction for everyday activities, they are not specialized sports shoes and may not provide the specific support or cushioning required for intense athletic training.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and measure your child's foot length. The UK size is listed, and comparing this to standard foot measurements will help ensure a proper fit.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The leather upper can be somewhat water-resistant, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they are properly dried if they get wet, and consider using a waterproofing spray designed for leather.
What is the main difference between Samba OG and other Samba models?
The Samba OG typically refers to the most classic iteration of the Samba design, often featuring premium materials like full-grain leather and the traditional gum sole. Other models might incorporate different materials, updated features, or variations on the original silhouette.
How often should I clean my Samba OG trainers?
Clean them as needed, especially after significant wear or exposure to dirt. Regular light cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance. Deep cleaning or conditioning can be done periodically, perhaps every few months depending on usage.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the adidas Samba OG series is available in various colorways. This guide focuses on the 'Cloud White/Core Black/Gum' variant, but other options exist.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Try wearing them with thinner socks. If they are new, the leather may need a short break-in period.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Difficulty cleaning scuff marks
For light scuffs, try a magic eraser or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, professional cleaning might be necessary.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. Follow the product's instructions.
- Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Ensure any mud or debris is removed to maintain grip.
