    Good shoe. Not great, but good. I bought these mainly 'cause I think they look cool, I confess. The arch is a bit too far forward, and they sqeak like mice when I walk (which will stop over time). They're also not ventilated, so my feet get really hot in them. The only real reason I wear them every day is 'cause they look so cool and they're really in style right now. I'm a total fashion-victim where these shoes are concerned, cause they're not that great -but they look good.

    Sambas are just plain RAD! EVERYONE had these things when I was in middle school, nowadays almost no one knows what I'm talking about when I ask for Sambas. But the truth is, these kicks are the epitome of old-school cool!

    Play? Hasn't anyone here even played in these shoes? True, they are great for walkin around in and they look good, but in my opinion, they are amazing for actually playing soccer in. They excel for both indoor and dry conditions, as long as grass is short.

    Great Shoes - I bought these shoes for my husband to replace a pair he already had. The ones he had, have lasted a long time and he's been hard on them. But the shoes are really comfortable for him and wear great! These are comfy and durable shoes!

    Looks great! The shoe fits perfectly, but at first feels a little uncomfortable. The style is very versatile. Looks good on a night out or for relaxing during the day. The shoe has a long tounge, so they should be worn with jeans or pants.

    I ordered these for my fiance for Christmas. These are his 4th or 5th pair of Sambas, he loves them and wears them until they wear out. We were completely satisfied, except that I counldn't tell until we got them that they had such a long tongue on them, unlike his old Sambas. It seems like Adidas changes the appearance a little every so often, but this is a change he did not like, because they won't look very good with shorts this summer. Please tell Adidas to stick to the short tongues unless they are making a pair of cleats. Thanks.

    These are indoor soccer shoes - A lot of people are saying that the tounge is to long. That's because the Samba is really a indoor soccer shoe, not an everyday shoe. Leave the tounge the way it is. I've used these shoes for many years, also tried others, but the Samba is by far the best shoe for the money!

    Awesome Shoe - When I bought the Samba Classic's, I knew that I had made a good choice. I play indoor soccer with them, I use them in P.E. and I sometimes wear them in the Gym. I wear a size 12 1/2 and so I thought that I'd buy them a half size larger so they'd fit longer. Well, big mistake. Now it feels as if they are way too big and I have to wear about 4 pairs of socks to my games. But none the less, these are great shoes. I just wish that I would've bought them the same size that I wear right now. So if you are thinking about buying this shoe, buy it the SAME size as you are right now, so that it won't be way to big when you buy it. Overall I'd give this shoe a 4 1/2 out of 5.

    Brands I'd also recommend: try the outdoor soccer shoe Vapor

    The BEST sneaker - I love these shoes...they are the second pair I've had, and I completely wore out the first ones. They look great with everything. I'm glad I can get them online, though, because I can't ever find them in stores!

    Only shoes my teenage boys will wear - My high school age sons have been wearing these since elementary school, and there are no other shoes they will tolerate. They have a simple, comfortable fit and style without all the heavy padding of most other athletic shoes, and they are definitely the most durable sneakers I have ever bought.

    Just what I was looking for - Saw them advertised in a magazine. Thought I would try them out. Great shoe. Don't get much chance to play soccer anymore (or do anything athletically inclined) so I wear them with jeans to head out for a night on the town. Got them in just two days. Thanks, Zappos. Another good shopping experience.

    Great Shoe - I Love these shoes. They are good for both girls and boys(me being a girl). I wear them almost everyday with or without socks. The Kangaroo Leather Sambas are also really good shoes, worth the money. I have both and between the two they are practically the only shoes I wear. The long tongue doesnt bother me at all, just hide it under the lace. Great for playing soccer! Comfort is the main reason to get this shoes in my opinion.

    Brands I'd also recommend: no other shoe, all samba styles are great
