Customer Reviews adidas Samba® Classic Soccer Cleats

Favoured shoe of 18 year old nephew - this was on my nephew's gift list and is the shoe he wears every day; he loves it; also, the service at Zappo's was great, i found out he wanted this shoe just a few days before christmas, and received it on time and exactly as ordered. Thanks, Zappos!

Perfect Fit - I bought the Adidas Samba as a gift for my 19 year old son (college student) who swears by them this is his second pair in three years need I say more he loved his first pair so much. I knew what a perfect gift these would be. Right out of the box they were a perfect fit. I can say from my own personal experiences with Adidas shoes they are tough and long wearing and once broke in to your feet, fit like a glove. I personally own about six pair mostly high tops and other brands as well but prefer the Adidas over the others for durability, comfort and style. I am an interior trim carpenter who flat out refuses to wear boots.

Our family loves these shoes! These classics are always in style and both my teenagers (boy and girl) wear them! My preteen wants a pair and I'm thinking about getting some too. We are extremely please with a fine, classic product. Thanks Zappos!

More than one pair is a good thing - I own two pairs of Adidas Sambas, one black, one white. They take a couple days to break in, but once they're broken in, they're extremely comfortable. I highly recommend the sambas. They have a great look and can go with most anything. With Adidas, I have to buy a half size larger than I would in a dress shoe. The 11.5's are a bit too small, but a 12 is just right.

The perfect casual shoe. I just ordered these in white to replace the ones my husband wore out. He's extremely picky about shoes and hates to shop, so once he finds something he likes I count on Zappos to order new ones. Can't go wrong with the free shipping! These are the greatest shoes: hip, comfortable, inexpensive and durable. The white ones stand out since the black version is so common. The suede part does tend to get dirty quickly, but they still look great and are easy to clean.

cool and comfortable - My 15 year old son chose this shoe online mainly for its cool look, but he also finds them extremely comfortable. They have a good arch, but seem a bit narrow and/or short. He had to size up to a 13 although his other shoes are 12 and 12.5.

This shoe is very comfortable and fits perfectly. The quality is excellent and it is a cool-looking shoe. I would definitely buy more of this model in the future.

Great - I've had a pair for five years and I wear them everyday. The most comfortable shoe I own, it's like wearing nothing.

Comfortable shoes! Bought the shoes originally for my Halloween costume (80s workout guy) but I couldn't stop wearing them once they came in the mail. Super comfortable and are definitely stylish today.

Comfortable Shoes - These shoes are extremely comfortable and I love the style of them! Would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a classic, stylish, and comfy shoe.

Adidas Samba Classics - I wear a size 14, have flat feet and have super wide feet. Let’s say it is difficult for me to find shoes. The first day I wore these shoes they felt too narrow and were a bit uncomfortable. However, after the second day the shoes began to "break-in". Now these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. The soft leather molded to my foot perfectly and these shoes have great arch support. I love these shoes!!! I highly recommend them.

Love this shoe! Love the look and they are extremely comfortable - my only gripe was that I had to send 1st pair back because they felt a full size larger than marked!

Classic Greatness - A top tier shoe in all respects. Despite it being a rather common shoe, people respond to it. It goes with anything and it's like wearing a second pair of your own feet.

My kids love their Samba's - Great shoes...I have a teenage daughter and son that wear them...and have for years. You can't go wrong with this shoe. Zappos’ service is fab!!

Outstanding - Been wearing these shoes every day for 2 weeks. I was looking for shoes to play soccer with my son on a turf field and grass. They work perfect for this, but I find them so comfortable I use them all day long. Top shelf service as usual from Zappos. Thanks

Classic, indeed! This shoe was recently reviewed in a men's magazine as the shoe to wear with a suit if you are confident enough to pull off that look. It goes with casual pants, jeans, and yes, I am confident enough and wore my Sambas with a suit once. The shoe doesn't envelope your foot up to your ankle like some other sneakers, rather, it sits lower for an almost slipper-like feel. Its style is timeless and as a former soccer player, it brings back memories and almost inspires me to kick around a soccer ball. Almost... My only regret is that I didn't pick up a pair sooner. Get this shoe!

Nice Classic shoes - Nice looking shoes, bought them for indoor football but probably better used as casual shoes.

Best athletic shoes ever - I think this is my sixth pair of Sambas. They have a great fit and awesome timeless style. If there is a shoe hall of fame, these must have their own wing. I wear them with jeans to work most days of the week. They have some drawbacks, though, largely as an outcome of their original purpose. They can be slippery on wet pavements (designed for Astroturf, so that’s my fault) they don't have a lot of midsole support or cushion for walking and running to catch a bus in the city (again, designed for Astroturf, so who am I to complain). But they fit beautifully on my feet and stretch over time to conform to my foot shape. You'll find the laces get longer with time as the shoe stretches to fit your foot like a glove. These are a classic and must haves!

Classic Kicks - Basically these are the best shoes ever made. They feature a very nice molding footbed, shock absorbing soles, sturdy uppers and stay looking good even with daily wear. They look good with everything from tuxedos to soccer shorts, and you can spend twice as much money looking for shoes that offer as much as these.

Big Feet - I have a hard time finding shoes for my size that is a size 14. He found these shoes in a local shoe store but didn't have his size. I logged onto Zappos.com and ordered them. My son loves them and wears them for his everyday shoe. They also look good on his size foot. You cannot go wrong.

These are great ~ The tongues on these shoes are long enough that when you mow your lawn, you won't get grass clippings on your ankle around your socks! These aren't all bulky or clunky, when you put them on they have a more realistic & ergonomic fit than the Adidas Superstars do, anyway you gotta get the matching jumpsuit if you really want to sport Superstars (you know you want it). Adidas Samba- Well worth the price indeed.

Overall pleased - Yeah I pretty much loved this shoe from the first time I saw it. It’s kind of tight at first and a bit hard to relace because the holes are kind of stiff but that doesn’t bother me too much. The tongue is long but it has a nice look. This shoe works either casual or somewhat dressy and pretty much matches everything. From experience I find that most shoes run men's sizes 2 sizes smaller than women's. So I got a 6.5 men’s to fit a women’s 8.5. It fits fine, a little snug, not much room to slide around, but I think if I got a 7 it would be too big, so I’m overall glad with my choice. I hope this review helps. So I recommend this shoe to anyone and everyone. It rocks!

CLASSIC SHOE! This is a good looking old school classic. The only thing I don’t get is the extra-long tongue. Does not detract, except if wearing shorts. Happy with purchase and Zappos service is the best.
