My son loved these shoes. Although they were a size to big he still loves wearing them and would not take them off.

I bought these for my seven year old son and they fitted perfectly. They worked great for school and was one of his favorite pairs. I would buy these again.

This is the second pair I have bought for my now 5.5 year old. He outgrew his last pair. These shoes are really durable for kids. They withstand a lot of playtime without looking beat up. The laces hold up really well also (I’ve had the experience with other shoes where I have to keep changing the laces out often because they start to wear out and look really bad). My son finds them to be comfortable as well. I do think they run a little bit small so I usually size up in these.

These shoes are a combination of durability and practicality that my active kids require. My kids love these shoes, and unlike their other shoes these actually last until my kids grow out of them. Then we order another pair!

They fit great! My 3 year old prefers his colorful sneakers, but I have a 25+ year old obsession with these shoes and think they look adorable on him. He doesn’t like them as much which may be more the color than the comfort.

I'm an adult (Womens' size 6.5) but these kids shoes in a 5 fit perfectly! I was so bummed when I saw the adult Samba Classic was unavailable in my size but I needed shoes quick so I took a gamble on these and am so happy I did! The quality and fit are great and they don't look like goofy kids' shoes either. Spent a day walking city streets on them straight out of the box - no breaking in necessary, super comfy, they don't show dirt, and they match with everything :)

We have purchased this shoe more than once as our son grows. We ordered the wrong size and the exchange process was so easy and fast. These shoes are durable and will last until you have to get a bigger size.

My grandson loves them-- they came just in time for soccer camp and he wore them every day and just said they were really "comfy".

As always, the Samba is true to size. It's a solid sneaker in every aspect. My sons have been wearing this style since toddlerhood, so 16 years and 11 years.
My eldest boys have high arched, narrow feet and my youngest son has slightly wide, flat feet. All three boys prefer their Sambas and it's the only sneaker/shoe my youngest will wear.

The only sneaker my 10 year-old wants to wear. He's been wearing Samba since toddlerhood, same for his 16 year-old twin brothers.
They're solid, well-made and have lasted until he outgrows them.
Love the Samba!

We’ve been buying these for our kids for years because they go to private school and have to wear black or white shoes. These last a long time while continuing to look nice. Plus these classic Adidas never go out of style!

I am an adult woman with small feet, so I usually buy kids' sizes in sneakers. I searched high and low for white Adidas Sambas in brick-and-mortar stores with no luck, but Zappos came through in the end! These were a little snug in the toe, though not too bad with thin socks. Otherwise the fit around the ankle was great and they felt comfortable. These sneakers are not my usual style. To be honest? I wanted Freddie Mercury shoes, and these were closest to the kind that he wore. I now walk in time to the beat of Another One Bites the Dust whenever I wear them.
