THE SAMBA SIZE GUIDE

Soccer shoes are all the rage right now and honestly we are here for it. As avid adidas fans, we are never without a pair of terrace shoes, but as you know, Samba sizing can be tricky. Don’t worry, we got you!

HOW DO SAMBAS FIT?

Adidas terrace shoes have been an integral part of sneaker culture since their creation. Originally designed for indoor soccer, these shoes quickly surpassed their sporting roots to become a street style staple. Since they have a sleek silhouette some people find them to be slightly narrow.Adidas Sambas have a regular fit, but if you have wider feet you could benefit from going up half a size for a little more room.

HOW TO CLEAN ADIDAS SAMBAS?

Here’s a couple of quick dos and don’ts to keep your Sambas looking fresh all season long.

1. Use a shoe protector like Jason Markk Repel or Crep Protect Spray before you start wearing them. This will create a breathable barrier over the shoes so dirt and debris don’t cling to them as easily.

2. Clean your adidas Sambas regularly with a shoe care cleaning kit like the Crep Protect Travel Pack or mix a small amount of mild soap and water. Be mindful to not saturate the suede t-toe with too much water.

3. Do not put your Sambas in the washing machine. Just don’t. It will cause discolouration and ruin the material and overall structure of the shoe (not to mention it’s probably not great for your washer).
