If I were to buy another pair, I’d go with a size 12. My shoes range from size 11 to 12 and for the Adidas Samba, I split the difference and went with a size 11.5. Bear in mind that my feet aren’t particularly wide, so those with sensitive feet may need to order half a size up and those with wide feet might unfortunately have to pass up on the Samba Shoes entirely. The feeling wasn’t uncomfortable (barring the break in period), more so odd. Throughout my time wearing the Sambas, I was acutely aware of how narrow they were. I’d urge those with more sensitive feet to exercise caution. Luckily, after a day, the fit became roomier and I had no blisters to show for the painful break-in period. I could barely stand to walk in them and for a moment, I was considering ending the test then to order a new pair. During my first day of wearing the shoes, the sides of my arches were cinched with a vice-like grip, particularly after any bit of pressure. Said break-in period is mercifully short, yet particularly painful. The Sambas turned out to be a comfortable pair of shoes, but things were looking a bit dicey during the break-in period. The break-in period is short but can be painful What I don’t like about Adidas Samba Shoes While there was a brief break-in period, after this, it was smooth sailing and the Sambas were an absolute dream on my feet. One day I wore my pair of Sambas helping a friend move, another day was spent walking across two museums. I spent a lot of time wearing the Adidas Sambas and I’m happy to report that they feel as good as they look. 75 Built on a 70 year history, the adidas Originals Samba shoes have made an impact on music, skate and fashion.

Authentic and true to its roots, the Samba OG promises to bring love for the classic silhouette to a whole new generation. Serrated 3-Stripes and a reinforced T-toe celebrate the shoes rich design history. The result is a pair of shoes that can simultaneously pop out in an athletic or casual fit while being able to fade to the background in dressier attire. A soft leather upper and smooth rubber outsole make them comfortable enough for everyday wear. And yet, even the most understated colorways still rock some sort of multicolor action thanks to the gum soles.

In some colorways, the stripes are practically invisible thanks to a monochromatic color palette. Similarly, while the Samba shoes’ diagonal tri-stripe is distinct, it’s low-key enough to not draw attention to itself.

While wearing a neutral color (in my case, white) helps, the shoes’ quiet presence comes mostly from their narrow and low profile. My Sambas paired well with several different types of outfits.
