Customer Reviews adidas Originals Samoa

Adidas can always seem like they run small, although I have had a few pairs be 'tru to size' but love these shoes!

This is definitely not a medium width, this is the narrowest shoe I have ever worn and I usually just buy the middle of the road "medium" width. Sending back for a different shoe :(

It is a pretty decent shoe.

I wanted to join the chorus and get the norm core look. The Samoa is beautiful and comes with great arch support that is hard to get with sneakers. The only downside is that it runs a half size large. I am returning it to get a smaller one.

I thought I would try these as a change from the usual Superstar or Air Force 1. The material quality is certainly there, barring the cheap, slippery vinyl in the heel cup. The sole is quite narrow but offers decent traction. I doubt one would lose grip but there is a bit of wobble. These run quite narrow and have almost zero padding beyond the odd midfoot bumps. I could not nail down a size. My usual 10.5D was too confining and sizing up to an 11 introduced a length problem.

I bought these as work shoes. The length seemed a little big. I added insoles and all is well. Adidas rules!

This is a nice looking shoe that felt pretty supportive for a fashion shoe. However, I am female and sized down from my normal women's 11 in athletic shoes to 9.5. The shoe was quite large; at least 1/2 size too big or possibly even a full size. I decided not to try a smaller size because the shoe was very stiff and I wanted something more flexible. I don't think it is made of leather, but it's leather-look, which gives it a nice, more "dressy" look than a mesh tennis shoe.

Adidas were as described with free next day shipping! You can't beat the prices plus next day arrival? Zappos will get my business from now on!

Overall, these shoes are awesome. I am very picky about style, and it took me forever to find these. The biggest complaint is the insoles. They have a very high arch which is hard as a rock and are not removable. This is fine for my left foot, but my right is slightly shorter and if I ever wear thick socks it rubs and pushes and drives me mad. This might also have to do with the fact that they're intended for men, and I'm a woman. Otherwise, they look awesome, are overall quite comfortable and roomy. I'm just going to have to find a way to rip out those insoles.

Great looking and durable shoe. Will purchase a new pair in a bit.

My usual size was 1/2 size too large. Didn't return because size smaller was out of stock and I wanted an all leather sneaker. Liked earlier versions better that were sleeker, lighter and less clunky.

Once I took the shoes out of the box, I felt the picture on website gave the impression of better quality upper leather on the shoe. I love the small rear heel, gives a little lift. I'm overall happy with my new Adidas, but would order a 1/2 size smaller.

I'm sad that these shoes fit so poorly because I love them! They're so dope! But that only goes so far when they squish the sides of your feet and your heel slips out with every step. As much as it pains me to say goodbye to them, I think they might have to go back.

Good buy, I purchased the green pair. These shoes are good for everyday wear and tear. They are functional for all your casual needs. However, I would not recommend them for athletic purposes. They do not provide any arch support and don't take impact very well (jumping/ running) All in all it a good get around in shoe.

I liked the shoe overall, but the quality was not there. Looked a little cheap.

The shoe felt slightly narrower than marked imo. But I put on thinner socks and it felt better. They style is classic and very versatile. Ladies love its simplicity.

Overall, nice looking shoe and decently comfortable. Squeeky at first, but haven't noticed it as much lately. I ordered a 13, which I normally wear in Adidas, but almost feel like I could fit into a 12. Unfortunately, I probably need a 12.5, which isn't available. If you're in between sizes, I would order the smaller size first, and send it back if too small. Easier than ordering the bigger size first.

I just bought these shoes and they feel good, very nice casual shoe for almost anything.

It took me a while to get used to the back of the shoe, which is quite spacey. I also had to wear this a lot before it became comfy. I have a yellow/beige combination, which is really cute, but I find that the plastic material is really fragile and can be easily broken. These shoes are mostly OK for their looks.
