FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard sizing conventions, but it is always recommended to refer to your specific UK size to ensure the most comfortable fit.
Can I use these for intense athletic activities?
While based on a classic Samba, the Samba Jane is designed as a lifestyle shoe rather than a high-performance athletic trainer.
What is the best way to clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and ensure you let them air dry away from heat sources.
Does the strap require frequent adjustment?
The strap is part of the design aesthetic and works in tandem with the laces to provide a secure fit once you have found your preferred tightness.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid heavy rain or puddles to protect the integrity of the leather.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help maintain their shape and minimize deep creases in the leather.
Difficulty maintaining leather shine
Apply a light coat of leather cream or polish designed for brown footwear to restore the finish.
Outsole losing grip
Clean the gum rubber sole with a damp brush or cloth to remove buildup, which often restores the natural tackiness of the rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba Janes last as long as possible, it is important to follow proper care protocols for the leather material. Use a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent drying or cracking. Since these are low-top shoes, they are compatible with most sock styles, including no-show socks if you prefer to highlight the strap design. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. If the gum rubber outsole accumulates dirt or debris, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain optimal grip.
