It says runs a half size big but I’d say nearly a whole size big! I first ordered a 10 online. Went to exchange them in store but they didn’t have a 9 ½ so they ordered them and had them shipped to my house. The shoes arrived today and although the box says 9 ½ the shoes inside are actually only a 9. So they were mis-boxed. But they fit perfect!! That means they fit a whole size too big because all my other Adidas shoes are 10s. Very comfortable shoes!!!

Great trainers, look great and are comfy. I gave a 4 only because these are my second pair. First pair I returned after one wear. There’s a flaw on the design… the stripes are cotton base and some how my first pair must have caught something cause the stripe to cut with no one of repairing it.ASOS customer service was great and regular fed the first pair.They look great on though 👍

Adidas.com clearly shows unisex sizing for the Sambae while other stores like Dick's Sporting Goods advertise the Sambae as a women's shoe (with a woman on the shoe box label). I tried these on locally at DSG and size 9 is a men's size 9! Needed a size 8 to achieve my TTS women's size 9. Adidas, please put unisex sizing somewhere in the Sambae description and have other stores selling this shoe do the same...this would eliminate size confusion. After sizing was figured out, this is a dope and more comfortable Samba version!

I'm a size 10. With Adidas, I tend to have to size down by a half size. I actually sized down a full size to a 9. I wear thin half socks that cover the toes and the 9 worked best for me. 9.5 was slipping off the heel. (But 9.5 would definitely work for me if I wore a more coverage sock) If wearing lightweight to medium weight cotton socks, I highly suggest sizing down a half size. I honestly don't understand how these run true to size for some unless they're wearing thicker socks. I almost always fit a size 10 or 10.5 if it's a narrow shoe. The size 10 was way too big and Long in the toe box.
These fit as expected (true to size), comfortable cushioning, very stylish with jeans or a dress. They’re also really easy to get on and off compared to other fashion sneakers I’ve worn. The semi-retro feel is classic, and the gel sole adds style and comfort. Definitely recommend.Also, compared to the platform Gizelle style, these are slightly less platform but the black is more saturated (so they look like true black as opposed to dyed black suede).
OK, I have been waiting forever for these shoes to come in my size. I’m normally a TTS women’s size 9. But I decided to buy an 8 1/2 because everyone said the shoeran big. Finally, an 8 1/2 became available in the red version, so I immediately bought them. They just came today, and the shoe is gorgeous and really well-made, but unfortunately it’s still too big! I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced this with a pair of shoes before, I have never had to size down an entire shoe size. These run that big. I think I have to return :(
The Adidas Samba MN are clean with a minimalist style and iconic design. They are unbelievably affordable and made from real leather and suede. Very comfortable, the MN's provide a good grip for casual use and are true to size, i have wide feet and have had no issues. Easy to style and very versatile and therefore perfect for any occasion and can be dressed up or down. I do believe that they are a timeless shoe that will never go out of style.
I had purchased a pair of Gazelle in green suede which I loved but I hated that they were suede...I live in the PNW (it is wet here a lot)... I purchased at the same time a pair of the regular white Sambas with the dark sole and the black stripes...but I missed the green....I was thinking to myself I wish there was a way that they could merge the 2 shoes together... tada I found these.The shoe doesn't necessarily run big lengthwise but it is WIDE...I have an average to just on the edges of narrow (I cannot wear narrow shoes). I purchased a 6.5 and that is what I ended up getting, I tried the 6 and while it fit it rubbed against my big toe and I was thinking after the walking I would end up with blisters on my toe. Even with sock they are still a little wide but ... MoreI had purchased a pair of Gazelle in green suede which I loved but I hated that they were suede...I live in the PNW (it is wet here a lot)...

Even with sock they are still a little wide but not enough to exchange them for a size down.The stripes are not leather it is embroidered...I think it looks nicer than the leather....the green embroidery has a little shine.When I went into the store- they referred to it as a platform (which made me cringe). But it is not a crazy ridiculous platform but it is a hair taller than the regular Sambas and the Gazelles.
So I have the original gender inclusive style in a men’s 10, 44 EU, 9.5 UK and I have some wiggle room. So I just received these in a women’s 11, box shows 11, 44 EU, 9.5 UK. These easily give me a a thumb width in the toe box, they feel a little wider. I really love them and may just wear a thicker sock. I may be able to try a half smaller but with how fast these go I’m keeping them. Usually a true 11 in women’s and these do give to a bit of room. Hopefully you can try in store. The look of the shoe is awesome. Also note the white stripes are made of thread stitched horizontally so hoping they can withstand, I’m dreading them getting snagged.
So a lot of people say this shoe runs a half size too large but I have to disagree. I bought my usual woman’s 10 and although I do have room in the toe box I feel anything smaller I would have hit the front of the shoe with my toes. That being said, I do have wide feet so maybe this is why. Someone with narrow feet might benefit from a half size down. These are comfortable shoes for sure. The suede detailing makes them look extra nice! I have them in red and black. Would love to get them in more colors! Make these in pink and blue !!!
