Customer Reviews adidas Samba® K

Bought by girl-GREAT LOOK, COMFY, can be hot in summer - Love these so much I bought a second pair! The only negative is that I don't wear socks with them and in the summer they can get pretty warm. But in cooler weather they are my favorite play shoes.

Love the adidas Samba K - shoe fits perfect. the kangaroo leather is the way to go. Great for indoor, coaching, or just running around town. Can't recommend enough. Super speedy Zappos shipping as a bonus. Buy these shoes!

Up there with the best - I've worn several versions of the Samba for the past 20 years, for both competition and liesure. This version with Kangaroo leather is one of the two best I've had. I'm using this pair for competition. It provides great support and the leather forms to your foot. There's no question that you should pay the extra $30 if you're considering the less expensive version.

Can't bust em - These are great shoes. I have had mine for about a year now and they really hold up well inside and out. They feel great without socks; I wore my Sambas without socks on my week vaction last August and they were really comfortable.

I loved 'em - These shoes are comfortable, good looking and durable. I wear them both for leisure and for semi-serious soccer and they work great for both, even after more than a year of wear.

Zappos is fantastic, and so are these kickers! Zappos promised free standard shipping with the order (which I believe is normally ground), well to my surprise they upgraded me to overnight shipping at no charge. The shoes are incredibly comfortable, I'm using them for hanging around and for my workouts, I can honestly recommend both the shoes and Zappos!

awesome shoe - Amazing shoe, like no other. Lasted me 3 years! Comfortable, great looking, improves your soccer game immensly, as well as social life! A must have!

This is the most comfortable and durable shoe that I have found. I wear them everywhere everyday. I have had 3 pairs and each has lasted at least two years.

Great shoes, except for the tongue! I'm really glad I found out about the Samba K right before I almost ordered the standard Samba sneakers. The premium kangaroo leather really makes this shoe stand out. Usually I'm not a fan of shoes that are completely leather because they're very stiff and the overly coated, thick leather seems cheap to me. On the Samba K however, this leather is so supple and has such a great high-quality look, like that of an expensive handbag. It took no time to break in and after a couple weeks they appear even better. The look is classic, and these shoes really look like they should cost a lot more than they do. The only downside is the tongue. Why, why does Adidas insist on putting such a long tongue on this shoe? At first I thought it was something necessary for soccer, but even if it is, I can't imagine what, since it never stays upright, in place. It loves to shimmy over to the outsides of your feet and after a while can get uncomfortable if you don't reposition. I'm not interested in folding the tongue down and putting the laces through either, since the inside of the tongue has a some-what unfinished look. With that said, everything else about the shoe helps me overlook the tongue issue altogether. I suppose a cobbler could easily shorten the tongue.

They're worth it! I bought the Samba primarily for casual wear...but I also play rec league soccer. The shoes are great, very comfortable and are holding up well. I did end up needing to buy 1/2 size larger than I normally wear though.

I like them. The only thing is that the tongue of the shoe shifts and that's a bit annoying. Also the back of the shoe sits pretty high and rubs on that area.
