Customer Reviews adidas Samba® Classic Soccer Cleats

Bought these for my son and he loves them! Although he is a 9 1/2, he had to get a 9. He said these are one of his favorite shoes he's ever had and very comfortable. They also look great too! Win, win!!

Samba,Samba, Samba has been around for 4 decades now and the shoe does not get old. Classic design, good craftsmanship and Adidas, what more could one ask for. A shoe at home on field turf in a match or on the street taking you home. I love this shoe.

Extremely comfortable. Needs break in period like any other shoe. Feels really fine but I have a smaller foot. My pair is a size 9 but I am normally an 8.5 but can pull into an 8. The tip suede like part gets very dirty and I noticed wear in 1 week. Good purchase. Good quality.

In the last six years I have purchased many different kinds of shoes; I bought zero drop trail runners, some slick brown suede Pumas, two pairs of cycling shoes, soccer boots, and hiking boots, in addition to six pairs of Samba Classics. Let me be clear,with the exception of the hiking boots (kept my feet warm bike commuting this winter), I really dislike every pair but the Sambas. All but the Pumas have a specific purpose which they fulfill to varying degrees but I grimace very time I pit them on. The way a pair of 2-10 month Sambas fits my feet is heavenly. I found everything I could ever want in an everyday shoe. I bought two more pairs just about a year ago now, one for work and one for everywhere else. The work pair are beat to hell. The insoles are 100 percent destroyed. They are cracked completely in two or more. The soles have worn down on the balls of my feet but are still solid and the outer is disgustingly dirty but intact. A simple set of insoles will carry them another year. My everything else pair is just now seeing the last of the screen printing on the insole disappearing. Like any new shoes, you must break them in. A 40 hour work week and a month was enough for my recent pairs. I have sworn to never buy another pair of casual outdoor shoes other than these. They are the gold standard. I have always tried shoes on for fit before buying. As a kid I had a different pair every time. I have no idea what true sizing is so please pay no attention to my rating in that respect. Only know that they are the only shoes that I am not dying to take off after a 13 hour shift.

The Chuck Taylors of everyday shoes. I did play soccer back in the day but these are not indoor soccer shoes, they're lifestyle shoes. This is my 12th pair of Sambas and I'll wear them into the ground and buy another. They top off any outfit in any situation. Simple. Elegant. Understated. Utility.

A good classic look but note they are very narrow and you may need to go a half size bigger if your feet are wide it will take a couple foot aches to break them in also I had to buy woman's arch supports for them because the men's were to wide and made the shoe way to tight. overall though a good shoe just give them a couple days to get broken in.

This is my third pair of Sambas if you don't count the ones I had to send back today. Adidas has changed sizing, 10.5 is no longer 10.5. They were horribly painful, so I exchanged for size 11 and they seem to feel great, haven't worn them for a full day yet, but immediately felt a relief when putting them on. 11 is really 10.5, or at least what 10.5 used to be for Sambas.

Very quick shipping. And it was free! I absolutely love the Sambas; someone I knew wore them, I had to have a pair. Now I do and they're great quality leather, sturdy soles, and overall nice looking shoes. I'll be sure to purchase another pair after I get full use of my current ones. Thanks Adidas and Zappos.

As always, the Samba classic works. Not a fancy shoe, but perfect for what it is.

These are great shoes, always have been. They are narrow though, until they eventually stretch out. They also have very high arches.

My two sons, now age 22 and 26, have worn Adidas Sambas since they were each 5 years old. They are comfortable, durable and washable. I have a hard time getting the old worn-out pair off their feet...still! The only temptation that works is a new pair!

I normally wear 9.5. The length on these felt fine, but they were definitely too narrow. Super comfortable otherwise - hopefully size 10 will work out.

I had a pair of these when I was a kid and loved them. Come 15 years later and they still make the exact same pair! I bought them on a whim but find I wear them almost everywhere now. Very cute with a pair of jeans.

Had wanted a pair of these since third grade and was happy to finally get them. I thought Adidas ran crazy big because I had a pair of Adidas high tops in size 10 and I usually wear a 8.5 or 9, so I ordered these in a 10 first and they were way too big. Got the 9.5 and I could probably even do the 9 but I am pleased with them, and Zappos's service, as always.

One of my favorite shoes. I'm going on my 6th pair of them. Comfortable and go with just about anything.

What can I say? These are classics. The quality is good, they are comfortable. They are a good casual shoe. I never find myself wondering if they look dorky or overly awesome. Hey, you can play soccer in them. They are priced so that you can do some grungy work in them and not worry about your investment. The girls like them and I can imagine there is a large portion of 1 in 10 men that find them a little sexy as well. So buy them feeling secure that you are going to look marvelous and feel even better.

I love the Samba Classic with the extra long tongue, have worn it for years. At some point in the last few years Adidas must have redone the sizing because when I just now ordered replacements for my worn out old ones in the exact same size they're a full 1/2 inch shorter. I ran into the same issue when I ordered Samba Originals based on my size in the Classics but just wrote it off as being a difference between the Originals and the Classic but I guess it's all the Sambas - so just know that if you used to wear a 9 and haven't bought them in a few years you'll need to order the 9 1/2 if you want them to fit the same...I really wish companies wouldn't do stuff like that but at least ordering from Zappos makes those sorts of issues really easy to fix!

These are my favorite shoes. I buy a new pair of these every 8 months or so. I constantly own them.

These shoes fit amazing and look good on anything. The only problem for me is that my feet start hurting when I run or play pick-up basketball. Other than that, these are great shoes.

I bought this soccer indoor sneakers for my son and he just loves them. They are light enough to be worn all day long and the style is very slick.

I have bought several pairs of Sambas over the last few years. They are a great fit with a classic design. The only thing with these shoes are the tongue really sticks up. You can be caught off guard by it if this is your first pair of this style but you get used to it after a week or two of wearing. I wear these shoes to work where I am on my feet all day and have no complaints.

This shoe just came, and it looks and feels great! It's a bit of a snug feel, it does feel kind of narrow, but I don't have as wide a foot so it's not so much a problem. If you do have a wide foot you may want to go up half a size or so. As far as looks it's just as shown in the picture, pure classic Adidas style. I am a soccer fan and I haven't tried them for the sport but I'm sure they will work just fine. If you want to wear them just for style that's fine too.
