Rubber sole Born on a football field in the 50s; used on streets and tracks around the world ever since. The adidas Samba is a true style icon. A soft leather upper and soft rubber sole make them comfortable enough for everyday wear. Serrated 3-stripes and a reinforced T-toe celebrate the shoe's rich design history. Subtle gold foil details add an uplifting finishing touch. Authentic and true to its roots, the Samba OG promises to bring love of the classic silhouette to a new generation.
