FAQs
How do I know if my Samba OG is the correct size?
The Samba OG generally fits true to size, but some users find them to be on the narrower side. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult a size chart. For this specific pair, it is a UK Size 6.5.
Can I wear the Samba OG for running?
While the Samba OG offers decent support for walking and casual wear, they are not designed as dedicated running shoes. They lack the advanced cushioning and specific support features found in performance running footwear.
How often should I clean my Samba OG shoes?
Clean your Samba OG shoes as needed based on wear and dirt accumulation. For regular use, a wipe-down after each wear and a more thorough cleaning/conditioning every few weeks is advisable.
What is the difference between the Samba OG and other Samba models?
The Samba OG is a classic iteration, often featuring premium leather uppers and signature details like the Samba name print and serrated 3-Stripes. Other models might have variations in materials, sole design, or branding.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions, as prolonged exposure can damage the leather and affect comfort.
Are the Samba OG shoes unisex?
Yes, the Samba OG is typically considered a unisex design, suitable for adults of all genders.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing heavily
This is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Regular conditioning can also help.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good grip, but like all footwear, traction can be reduced on very wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris.
Discoloration of leather
Protect leather from prolonged sun exposure and use appropriate leather cleaners and conditioners. Address spills immediately.
Laces fraying
Replace frayed laces with standard shoelaces. Consider waxing them for increased durability.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
