The adidas Samba shoes have dominated the street scene for decades. This version stays authentic to the original look but absorbs influences from two dominant cultures: football and skateboarding. Signature XLG tooling and the sidewall pattern add attitude, and a thicker midsole gives it a slight lift. Comfort comes in strong with a full-length EVA drop-in plus extra padding on the moulded tongue. Regular fit. Lace closure. Leather upper. Padded tongue. Full-length EVA drop-in. Leather lining.
