Patent Leather Dream
I’ve been looking for a pair of black patent leather like Adidas sneakers for a while, to style with a black and white patent leather Adidas bowling bag I’ve had for a little while. Well, I hit the style jackpot with these sneakers! Although I’m typically not a thin sole girlie when it comes to Adidas sneakers or any other brand, due to my Big Foot Betty status, but I could not resist these. The faux snake/reptile texture, the patent shiny sheen and last but not least, the cloud like comfort when I tried them on in the store (I typically wear a 10 or 10 1/2 in women’s sneakers and went with the 10). PERFECTION! The only thing that could send this sneaker into HOLY GRAIL status for me would be to make a platform version or elevate the sole just a few inches! I’d probably make it my exclusive footwear and never by another style of sneaker after that!

LOVE! Order 1 size smaller. They’re pure comfort!
After exchanging 1 size smaller they fit perfectly. I have just a bit of a wide foot but the width was perfect as was the fit. They’re so comfortable and no need to break them in. Very stylish wearing with jeans, dresses, basically anything. I’ve never been one to wear sneakers but I took one look at them and ordered them online (as I said I had to exchange for 1 size smaller; I normally wear 8.5 but the 7.5 fit perfectly with/without socks). The comfort level is amazing, even though the arch not being quite as much as I’m used to wearing. I love wearing them with anything because they are so comfortable. Mine are black with white stripes, totally gorgeous! Order them, you too will be very happy as me (at 72 years old).

perfection
These single-handedly go with almost everything I own. Versatile, comfortable, sophisticated, and flattering. I have several pairs of adidas, vans, and chucks; these are by far my favorite. Wear them with a dress or skirt to make it intentionally casual as well as unique, with your favorite shorts or jeans. This color combo is universal.

Stylish & Comfortable
I have tendinitis in my right foot and flat foot deformity in both foot. While the Samba has no arch support it is truly comfortable. It’s like wearing a pair of Toms Very lightweight. When my dad brought these to me I was very skeptical. I see PLENTY of people wearing these but as we know these days, people wear stuff to be trendy. He told me to just give them a try and I haven’t taken them off since.

Burgundy Pony OG Samba
The shoe is amazingly beautiful. The rich burgundy hues with pinkish clay accents is to die for! I love the pony hair and Suede features. This shoe should last the test of time. It’s a classic design! My only issue is the shoe strings a came damaged. Low score reason: Unfortunately, I cannot return nor exchange them because the shoe is sold out. Call customer service and was told nothing could be done about it. Not even compensation for sending me damaged shoe strings. That’s upsetting. Hopefully I can find some replacements to match the color one day soon.

Great shoe! Horrible shipping
Love the shoes, good experience with pickup. Somehow my multiple pairs are all different sizes but once I get that figured out, love all my Sambas and will keep purchasing. BUT posting this review after seeing how many others had horrendous packaging experience. I never got a replacement pair I ordered (now sold out) bc the packaging apparently got so damaged. Nordstrom needs to take a look at who is shipping these.

Stylish. Mom loves her first pair Samba
Our normal size is US 6. Based on the other reviews, I ordered two different sizes - US 5.5 and 6, and decided to keep 5.5. Since Samba provides no arch support, I got a pair of heel padded insoles for comfort. If the ball, arch and heel insoles are used, it will be too bulky. My mom loves it. It's stylish and comfortable.
