Customer Reviews adidas Kids Samba® Classic Core (Toddler/Little Kid/Big Kid)

Love these shoes for my 8 yr old money well spent

These shoes are super cute but probably better for narrower feet. I bought 172 up and they were just right for my son, I would buy 1 size up.

My 9 year old wanted "cool" shoes and these fit the bill. He says they are generally comfortable and he loves the way they look. Not as great for super active things like sprinting or playing soccer outside (they won't take the place of real running shoes or soccer cleats), but great everyday shoes.

These are great looking shoes that are solidly constructed that are classics! But they are way too narrow. My son is a W or 2W in normal shoes. Many other kids are, too. It is a squeeze, but he is able to get into a soccer M with many shoes. But for this Adidas Kids Samba Classic, he could not even get his foot halfway into the shoe - and it was half a size larger than normal. C'mon adidas. Make a wide shoe for the other 30 percent of kids out there. I would pay more if it would just fit.

Very cute! But way bigger than I expected. I bought a size 8 for my toddler, who is currently wearing a size 8 in his Puma shoes. The Adidas are huge by comparison. I held them up against a pair of Converse shoes that are size 10 and they were the same size. I don't know if this is typical or if the ones we received are mismarked, but they are way too big for our son.

My 9-year-old loves these sneakers but what was I thinking buying white suede sneakers for a kid? I tried spraying them with suede protector but they still turned filthy within a week. Live and learn. Other than that, they're great.

My 3 1/2 year old started indoor soccer and these are perfect! They run true to size with thin socks. Need to be tied tight and double knotted when playing. Great shoe - a must for indoors.

Great shoes, as always. All three of my boys wear sambas, always, everyday. My input on these particular sambas, however, is that this is our first pair of white. My son is very happy with them, but I am disappointed, because, as I could have easily predicted, they were immediately dirty. They are not easy to clean, and thus look forever dingy. I will switch back to blue or black for his next size. (By the way, we love to dress these up with colored laces and get many compliments!)

I'm so bummed! I purchased these for my 6 1/2 year old son who has a high instep and had to return them as they squeezed his foot (happens to us all the time). I love the look and I hear the quality is great. I'll try again next year!

Not anywhere near futsal-grade leather. Length was right but the toe box is really big.
