The Samba Sizing Rule You Need to Know, According to adidas

The adidas Samba has undoubtedly become one of the most popular and ubiquitous models in the sneakersphere right now. With many opting for simple, grab-and-go pairs, the Samba has been able to tick all of those boxes while bringing a clean look to any ’fit. OG colourways of the Samba are even so sought-after right now that the most recent global restock has seen countless raffles and sell-out drops!

Part of the Samba’s simplicity comes from the fact that it is a slimline shoe, and it’s not uncommon for many wearers to find that it’s definitely got a narrow fit. To ensure you cop the right size for you, adidas have published an official Samba size guide! Not surprisingly, the guide states that the Samba variations – including the Samba OG, the vegan, the Classic and the Cycling Shoe – all run narrow, so adi recommend those who have wider feet consider going half a size up for the extra room. Of course, this all depends on how wide your foot is and, therefore, whether it’s worth sizing up or not. And, if you don’t mind a snug fit, you could always stick to your regular size. Always be sure to check the size chart for the silhouette – for more info, access the guide here.
