More comfortable than my Cons, great price and they look good with everything. Even when I wear my duster!

I'll start by saying that I love these shoes! Great fit and awesome old skool style! The reverse of the original Samba (white shoe with black stripes) looks fantastic. The shorter tongue on this model makes 'em great for street wear. One thing to keep in mind: these shoes take a few days to break in. They're quite stiff at first, but they break in very nicely. Four stars for comfort only because they're warmer than running shoes, so my feet a very slightly sweaty after wearing them for a full day.

I have never written a review before...only for you Zappos because you guys are great! Love my Sambas, haven't worn them in past the squeaking yet, but love them anyway.

In my opinion the Samba is the best shoe that Adidas makes. It feels awesome and fits my feet perfectly. The shoe is definitely true to size and really contours your feet perfectly. My only complaint is that when the tongue rubs against the body of the shoe, it makes a squeak noise but that is not enough for me to lower the rating at all. You need to buy this shoe! I highly recommend it.

They were a little snug at first but leather relaxed and now they fit like a glove. I love them.

Comfortable, clean, stylish shoe. I believe they are designed for soccer, but I like them for casual/walking/cycling. I found I needed to buy a 1/2 size larger than normal. I typically wear 10, but needed these in 10.5.

The back of the shoe is high though and cut into my heel the first week or so until the leather softened up. The are much more comfortable now. Look great too.

The only shoes I wear, these things are classic. They squeak a little bit, but if you file down the top margins of the tongue it\'s fine.

I really like these shoes, they look very cool, and are rather comfortable. To me they are the quintessential urban shoes and not over-the-top visually, kinda minimalist design, yet comfortable, I like how I can slip them on without messing with the lace. They are still a bit squeaky, I am guessing that that will cease soon, Zappos gave me a surprise with super-fast shipping, so that was nice. I would definitely buy another pair.

Love 'em. They are super comfortable and really cool looking. I spend most of the day on my feet during work. As long as you're moving, they are fantastic. I wouldn't recommend them to someone who has to spend a lot of time just standing, as they don't have a lot of cushion. I'd definitely buy them again.

I bought these shoes for my boyfriend\'s birthday. Other websites were selling similar ones with a different logo color. He owned a pair before, but he liked this particular pair because the shoe tongue was shorter, making it more comfortable. This simple design makes the shoes easy to match any outfit, especially shorts, since they were made for indoor soccer shoes.

Bought these for my husband, he loves them! Great quality and Zappos was super helpful and friendly. When I ordered the wrong size, they sent me another pair right out!

Very cool shoes. Good feel, very comfortable and go with anything. Wear them to work, outside, out on the town. Very versatile. Old school styling is a plus, too!

I forgot the noise (squeak) that they make when they're still fresh! The leather version, nice color. I never had these in all black. I ordered the and they felt 1 full size smaller than I was expecting. Even after replacing it by half a size larger, it still feels very tight, compared to the Spezial (which is the same shoe, only made out of synthetic material, not leather).

The Addidas Samba is an attractive, comfortable shoe that, in my case, is true to size. I like the look because it is not bulky looking like other sneakers.

These shoes are great! They are extremely comfortable and fit perfectly. I am 6 months pregnant and have worn these everyday, and have not had any pain in my feet. They ran true to size for me.

Very fast shipping! Product arrived quickly and was in excellent condition. The shoes are made of stiff leather and run a little narrow. Thus, it took a couple of days before they started to break in and become more comfortable. Now that they are, I love them! Great shoes. I would highly recommend them both for athletic and casual wear.

I've always wanted a pair of Adidas Sambas, and thanks to Zappos great selection and prices I was sold. These shoes are quite nice, but the only thing I recommend is that you wear socks with it because they make your feet sweat if you wear them without socks. Otherwise, they go great with jeans and a t-shirt and are very comfortable.

Great pair of shoes. I was looking for something to replace my Puma Romas, but Puma has gone too European-looking for me. So I got these and have been pleased. The sole seems better than the Pumas and the comfort is about the same - which is to say very comfortable. They are a bit tighter, but that is because the leather needs to stretch a bit. I’d recommend these to a friend and likely buy them again in 5 years.

These are some of the most comfortable shoes I have worn. They look great, can be worn with semi-casual dress, even a sport coat and will take miles of walking. Perfect for a trip into NYC.

These shoes are great. They were a little squeaky when I first started wearing them but once I broke them in the squeaking stopped. They are really comfortable and go just about with any outfit. They definitely are a classic and well worth the money. Fast shipping too!
