Employing its minimal charm that's made the shoe transcend subcultures, adidas' Samba returns with updated nylon-like uppers that take inspiration from traditional outerwear. The suede T-toe takes on a textile build this time around yet 3-Stripes and heels are draped in tonal leather. Gold-tone branding gets switched out for archival white branding on the sidewalls nodding to timeless sportwear. Underfoot, sticky rubber soles sign off this terrace classic. | IG6170

I heard mixed reviews about this model that it’s not great for people with wider feet, so I went half size up & it fits perfectly. In fact it’s the only trainers that was super comfortable straight from the beginning, blister free even after 8 hours of wear. At first I’ve seen it just as temporary trend but I think this model is here to stay for me, definitely recommended.

The shoe is cute and fit well but the tongue of the shoe is stuff and jabs into my ankle. The tongue seems to made with a plastic leather that isn’t padded so I couldn’t imagine being able to wear these with no-show socks. Wish they had a better build quality because they’re cute.

Fits as expected for a Samba. Low profile and true to size. No color on the inside facing stripes. Wasn't expecting that, but it's okay. Gum soles are cool. Adidas never disappoints. Love them!

Love these trainers especially the peach colour! So cute and go with loads of outfits. I would agree with reviews RE sizing up. I'm usually a 6/6.5 but sized up to a 7 and they fit really nicely.Docked one star as i found they needed breaking in as the tongue part is quite uncomfy on front of the ankle for a few days. Worth persisting though!
My shoe size is 8.5 but I read reviews that said to size down so I initially ordered them (elsewhere) in size 8. The 8 was too short so I ordered a second pair from Nordstorm in 8.5 and they were too long. So they didnt fit in either size but I also found them very stiff and the tongues jabbed painfully into the front of my ankle. I wear a medium shoe and they also seemed a little wide. I couldnt wear them so they were returned. I also wanted to mention that these sneakers are marked up substantially by most retailers due to their popularity but I appreciated that Nordstorm only charged $100 which, I assume, is the suggested retail price.
I ordered the green here but it was cancelled the next day…drives me crazy that Nordstrom does that - it’s too triggering this close to nords sale, lol. I ended up getting them on FARFETCH and i LOVE them. I did order my regular size and they fit perfectly. I can see why people would recommend sizing down and a 1/2 size down would probably fit me but I have a higher arch and wide feet and my true size is very comfortable. So, I don’t think sizing down would’ve been as comfy for me.
Shoes are beautiful and I am happy with colour scheme. They go with everything! The tongue is quite stiff as it goes quite high and it rubs a little when directly on skin but all good when worn with socks Delivery was fast. Size spot on.
The color is great, THE TONGUE jabs in your ankle I thought I could put my jeans behind to avoid that but doesn't work. I give the comfort about a 7 1/2 out of 10. My main purpose was for the color. So if your looking for a comfortable shoe that you will be wearing all the time this isn't it not for 100.00.
Really liked the look of these Samba’s so thought I’d give them a go instead of my usual faves the Gazelle. First off I like them - the fit looks like it will be too small but actually it’s totally good. They’re slimmer in comparison to the Gazelle imo so wouldn’t recommend for really wide feet, and they feel a bit stiffer but that might be because they’re still newish however, the thing I really don’t like is the tongue which digs into the front of my ankle when I’m walking because it’s like a bit of cardboard with no softness to it at all so basically I’ve not worn them much as I wanted to. Shame…Kind of wish I’d stuck with Gazelle’s…
This is a well made shoe that will last a long time. Some people may not like that the heel sticks up for protection while playing, and the shoe will feel narrow until it breaks. The major problem I had is that the white balance of the website photo has apparently been modified to look better. In person, the white Samba doesn't have that near-white suede and gum sole you're currently looking at - the suede is more gray or taupe, and the sole is a dark brown. The picture looks far better. It'd be a cleaner look if the colors were lighter. Returned.
