I've had a pair of the black Adidas Samoas since Feb. 2005 and they still rock. They were 80s retro to start so it's not like they're going out of style. I've walked all over Europe, Africa, and the US in them, and they've been good to me every day. Some people say I look like I'm getting ready to go bowling or ref a soccer game, but those people don't know what's cool (ha!).

Best old school kicks to date -
I find that these are made much better than Puma or the retro Asics. Many retro sneakers have "no make" or support. While I wouldn’t run a marathon in these or use them at the gym they are very comfortable to wear to the office with Khakis, dress pants and Jeans. I wish they came in more colors. They are more comfortable than the samba and are very true to size.

This is a great pair of shoes. Very comfortable and make my feet look smaller. Zappos even upgraded my shipping from standard to next day free of charge. :)

Retro Review -
Service from Zappos is excellent as usual. Shoe seemed narrower than it did in the available pictures, although it has broken in nicely. Cushioning isn't very good and the insole is not removable for anyone using orthotics. I do, but since the insole is super thin with little cushioning at all, I wear the orthotic over the top and it doesn't cause any discomfort. The midsole offers very, very average cushioning. This shoe is stylish and goes well with denim or khaki type pants. Due to the long tongue, I wouldn't wear them with shorts. This isn't a shoe to wear to work, if the job requires you to be on your feet for 8 or more hours in a row because it offers very little support and cushioning, however, if this is a shoe you're wearing out and about and will spend more time sitting down than on your feet, give them a twirl.

Great shoes very comfortable. They fit like a glove and are true to size. I enjoy Adidas shoes and this is another pair I can add to my list. I have been wearing Adidas and other brands since I was about thirteen and I’m thirty now. Adidas is definitely at the top of my list when it comes to shoes.

Cool!
I have had my eye on these sneakers for the longest time and am happy they finally had my size in inventory. They are comfortable from the very first day of wearing them. The only detail I wish it didn't have the Samoa name on the side w/the stripes but it's really not a huge deterrent from purchasing them. Very pleased!

Cute but stiff -
These shoes look very cute but could use more cushioning and a more flexible heel. The heels on these are a little on the stiff side, so watch out for your Achilles tendons.

Adidas Samoas are the BEST! This is my fourth pair of Samoas and I was thrilled to see that adidas was making them again and that Zappos was carrying them! They're comfortable and look great with jeans, shorts, casual skirts…everything! My Samoas have traveled with me to Boston, Portland, New York, Berlin, Chicago, and more, and they always look and feel great! I'd highly recommend these shoes!!!

Love the shoes!!!
I love these shoes! I keep trying to find the Sambas in my size with no luck, so I went with the Samoa's. So glad I did, these shoes offer great support and they look great. No rubbing on the heel, no rubbing on the tongue (which is shorter than that of the Adidas Gazelle). All around great shoe. It took no time at all to 'wear in' to my own foot contours. Like it was made for me!

Love the Samoa -
This is my third pair of Samoa’s and I plan on getting another when these wear thin. First time you put them on, they feel a bit odd. But they break in well and can be dressed up or down.

Best Sneaker EVER!
Bought these four years ago. They are the most comfortable sneaker ever, they go great with shorts. They were so great I had to buy several more pair in as many colors as I could get my hands on!

I've been searching for the white ones with red stripes, but they seem to be discontinued. The 2 colors available on Zappos.com are just as nice! It runs slightly smaller than your average sneaker so don't be shy to go .5 to a full size above what you normally wear. I've known this for a while so I estimated my order correctly. No complaints, at all. 100% satisfied keep it up Zappos.com! I work next to a mall and I'd still rather get my sneakers through you guys.

Delightful experience -
The shoe is great. The only problem I have is a little discomfort with the width. I suggest you buy either a half size bigger or a whole size bigger to accommodate your feet. Overall, great shoe.

I have been wearing Adidas Sambas for the last 7 years and loved those shoes except for the lack of arch and heel support. Then I found these shoes and got all of the looks of my old Sambas with added arch and heel support. Great shoes!

Great shoes, very comfortable. I wear a size 6 1/2 and I had to order a size 6, I was a little worried that they would be too snug, but they were just fine I love them and wear them all the time.

Really cool looking. Tongue is a little long and tends to get stuck to the side and the heel is a bit uncomfortable but when you break them in they're fine.

 |  | Hello,
I want to thank you for your quick response to my problem. I did take you up on your offer to send me a replacement for the Clarks shoes I ordered. Double checking at the warehouse paid off. The pair I received was perfect. The shoes are beautiful and fit like a dream.
I really appreciate the convenient services you provided:
• The fact that you transferred my original payment to the purchase of the new pair rather than placing a second charge on my credit card.
• How you shipped the exchange order out right away, before receiving my return.
• Providing free, easy return shipping via UPS.
• Sending me an email confirmation when my return is completed.
I also appreciate the special service you offered me:
• The $35.00 coupon for my next purchase at Zappos.
I returned the original pair of Clarks shoes to the UPS store on Saturday. According to the tracking # you should receive it tomorrow. With hindsight maybe it was a good thing that my first purchase had a problem. Because of it I was able to see firsthand your serious commitment to customer satisfaction. I am very pleased with my Zappos experience and look forward to many pleasant purchases in the future.
Your loyal customer,
