My Samba Classics arrived on time by one day shipping. I can easily thank Zappos for that because not everyone does it. This is my first pair of the Adidas brand name ever, and I have to say I like them pretty well. A few things worried me at first, but I got over it once I wore the shoes. The tongue is a very thin fabric but also very comfortable when laced up . I first felt like the toe box might be too narrow. Then I took off my heavy winter socks and replaced them with a lighter pair. There's not much in the way of arch support and I was comfortable anyway. The style is sort of simple and basic, almost understated, which is what I look for in a retro shoe. The Samba Classic carries a special DNA and I love the soles on this one which are just perfect. A good casual choice to wear.

I wore these shoes 18 years ago, and they're the same today as they were then. The shoe is so unbelievably comfortable, you'll see why the design has remained unchanged for so long. The gum outer sole has nice grip on carpeted surfaces. The upper is soft yet durable, allowing for nice touch on the ball. The shoes are very light. My only complaint is the long tongue, but the other Samba version (with the shorter tongue) has other design changes that make them less comfortable (like the faux leather heel liner).

Very good shoes so far. I have extra wide feet and these only come in D width, but I bought them anyway and do not regret it. They\'re very snug but they stretch just enough to be comfortable, and have held up to considerable stress. They have a surprising amount of arch support, and I would recommend them to anyone.

My sons love Sambas! We have black and white. I don't think they are worth a lot of money but what are you going to do? They wear them almost every day. Thanks, Zappos, for being so easy to work with and for your amazing fast shipping! You rock!

I have been wearing these shoes for 16 years. I have owned a total of 4 pairs in my lifetime. I love them, they are great for being on your feet all day and versatile for everything from walking to rock climbing.

Very comfortable shoe with excellent arch support, cool styling, and very grippy soles. I bought this shoe for everyday use, and it is probably my favorite shoe ever. I will definitely buy more Adidas Sambas in the future.

Great shoes. They will last you a very long time. I had my previous pair for three years, and the only reason I had to order new ones was because my dog took one of my shoes and I couldn't find it. So if you're looking for a pair of shoes that will last you a long time, and look good, then look no further.

This shoe is great, fits nice and looks even better, but there isn’t any arch support - after standing all day when wearing these at work once, my feet were dying, not doing that again till I get inserts.

Classic about-town football shoe always ready for a quick pick-up game in the street or just sippin' espresso at the outdoor cafe. Lightweight yet sturdy, this simple pleasure takes care of your stance from the ground up - with international styling and doesn't make you sell your shares just to get them out the door.

I ordered these shoes from work, right around the time I got in that morning (9AM?). I was extremely surprised/happy to find them on my door step the very next day, when I returned from work. Amazing service, and shipping. I had never used Zappos before, and this is my third pair of shoes I've bought recently, and the third pair that came from Zappos. Great work! Oh yeah, about the shoes themselves, they're great, I'm wearing them right now.

I have ordered several times from zappos. Everything has always fit perfectly and I have been blown away at how fast my purchases arrive. The UPS man told me they are their favorite customer because they are so efficient. I have found their prices to be low compared to other companies especially since they don\'t charge for shipping. Love this company!

My Samba Classics have been excellent for my indoor soccer games. The shoes are comfortable and lightweight, along with being a great value. I've shopped Zappos for my last 3 pairs of shoes and I'm always impressed with the level of customer service.

I ordered a pair of shoes from Zappos.com. It was my first time, I needed them for my boyfriend's birthday. I ordered the shoes and they arrived in great time. I love the fact the Zappos has a 365 day return policy, too. This is so comforting to know. My boyfriend loved his shoes and I will be shopping with Zappos again real soon! Thanks!

I give the shoe an overall rating of five stars. I was immediately very pleased by the shoe\'s appearance. Upon wearing it first i did notice it was agreeable, however my only complaint of it in that category is that after walking for a long time in these shoes i would sometimes get a shooting hot pain in the arch of my foot. I suspect this is a personal problem and not a fault in the product though. I haven\'t a very attentive or savvy fashion eye, but i have gotten compliments from girls and have become recognizable to some degree by my white adidas alone. The last few pairs of shoes i\'ve worn regularly have been of this general variety. They are very durable and long lasting, though i would avoid getting them wet if at all possible.

PRE BACK SURGERY RELIEF -
This shoe was the greatest thing since sliced bread for my aching back awaiting back surgery! I have 2 slipped discs L4 and L5 of my lower back that are pinching my sciatic nerve. Which for those that don't know is the worst type of nerve pain the human body can receive. I am a rather big guy 6'2" and 220 lbs. more of it muscle than fat for what little bit it may or may not matter I might add. Point being that this shoe can support a big mans weight VERY COMFORTABLY and greatly reduced the pain my back was experiencing while awaiting surgery. If you’re looking for a good looking and overall great shoe I would recommend the Adidas Samba to ANYONE!!!

Nice shoe for the price -
I usually take a size 10D or Medium, but I found the shoe to be one-half size too small so I re-ordered a 10 and 1/2 and it fit fine.

Superior Shopping Experience -
Shopping with Zappos was a breeze. Shoes arrived much faster than I expected and even with free shipping. I am very pleased with Zappos and will shop again. I bought these shoes for my son's size 13.5 feet and the shopping experience was much easier than driving all over the place to search for his size. Thanks!

Great Shoes!
I love these shoes not only are do they look good but they fit well and you won’t have to walk like daffy duck to keep them looking good. I’ve Had mine for 4 months and still look good. If you want shoes with great quality but not the price then Adidas Samba is the shoe for you!

Adidas forever!
Sambas are ONE of my top choices for buying Adidas. They are comfortable right out of the box, but once they are broken in, they mold perfect to your feet. I tie my laces a little loose so I can slip these on in seconds. I bought the white. Next will be black. They also do seem to run half a size larger. Originally an 11, so I bought a 10.5 and they are almost right. Zappos is my hero. Got here in 1 day as usual...can't beat that anywhere.
I'd also recommend:
Pumas, other Adidas obviously

Love em'
I actually had to order these shoes twice because they felt a half size too big. I only wear them for indoor soccer and love the comfort and control they allow on the gym floor.
