Samba trainers

Elegant icons of streetwear culture, Samba trainers have a graceful presence like no other. The legendary sneakers that take their roots from indoor football cut such a pretty silhouette that it’s no wonder they’ve remained so stylish. Featuring full grain leather uppers and sophisticated suede overlays, adidas Samba trainers are built to please.

Make a bold fashion statement

An authentic T-toe feature at the front of the shoe gives Samba trainers their distinctive look. The raised pattern is distinctively original and appears in a range of materials which include gritty suede, full grain leather and pigskin nubuck. A contrasting heel patch provides an elegant touch and has been a long-standing detail since the very earliest models.

Evolution from the pitch to the footpath

First conceived by adidas founder Adi Dassler for use on icy football pitches, gum rubber cupsoles have been a definitive feature of Samba trainers since their inception. With a textured sole that delivers incredible grip on all surfaces, pivots and directional changes are enhanced. Whether you plan to wear these shoes on the field or on the dancefloor, Samba trainers have you covered for all occasions.

Boasting a rubber midsole that provides abundant cushioning, adidas Samba trainers are so comfortable you won’t want to take them off. Certain styles also include OrthoLite® sockliners, which deliver step-in cosiness and long-lasting performance. The moisture-wicking insole is lightweight and has good air ventilation to improve breathability. Made of anti-microbial materials, OrthoLite® sockliners will keep your Samba trainers fresh and clean.

adidas Samba trainers are available in a range of uppers that include full grain leather and hairy suede. No matter which style you choose, expect to hit the pavement with a new feeling of confidence and flair. Certain models feature Boost midsoles, Adiprene cushioning and amplified platforms, letting you customise your look with ease.
