Customer Reviews adidas Originals Samoa W

Retro Review - Service from Zappos is excellent as usual. Shoe seemed narrower than it did in the available pictures, although it has broken in nicely. Cushioning isn't very good and the insole is not removable for anyone using orthotics. I do, but since the insole is super thin with little cushioning at all, I wear the orthotic over the top and it doesn't cause any discomfort. The midsole offers very, very average cushioning. This shoe is stylish and goes well with denim or khaki type pants. Due to the long tongue, I wouldn't wear them with shorts. This isn't a shoe to wear to work, if the job requires you to be on your feet for 8 or more hours in a row because it offers very little support and cushioning, however, if this is a shoe you're wearing out and about and will spend more time sitting down than on your feet, give them a twirl.

I typically wear a size 8 in sneakers, so I had to exchange these for a 7½. Zappos made that exchange extremely easy! The 7½ still feels a tad bit large, but I will be wearing them during clinical rotations next semester in nursing school, so I am sure that my feet will swell a little while standing. I will write an updated review once I have walked around in them for a while, but they seem very durable and comfortable so far.

I had two pairs of these before and they were the most comfortable sneakers to walk in all day for work. I am waiting for my birthday to get my third pair of Samoas. In total I have five pairs of Adidas so far. I love Adidas.

These are great. so many compliments on them. And super fast shipping from Zappos. True to size.

These are such comfy shoes. They look good with jeans, shorts or capris. Great for major walking adventures or just cruising the mall. I ordered size 7 since previous people have reviewed these and said they ran big. I usually wear a 7.5 and I'm glad I did order a half size smaller because 7.5 would've been too big.

I love my new Samoa sneakers! So comfortable and they are great with every pair of jeans that I have. Very fast shipping from Zappos. I ordered 7 1/2, and all my shoes are 8, they fit awesome!

These sneakers are really nice. The sizes ran a little bigger, so I had to return my first pair and get a smaller size. The Zappos staff were very helpful in getting me the smaller size really quickly. I like these shoes enough to order a few more pairs, but in other colors. As far as comfort goes these shoes are not meant for long walks, but they look great on you.

I wear a 7 and the 7 in these were huge! Thankfully I'm able to exchange without any problems.

I like the shoes and I like ordering from Zappos they send you order right away and shipping is free very happy with purchase.

I love this shoe! I originally ordered a 10, but received a 9.5. I don't know if that was on purpose, but the shoe fit perfectly.

I ordered this shoe in my usual size 7, based on the reviews saying the fit was true to size. Also, my Adidas athletic sneakers are a size 7. However, these shoes were so large I had to return them. They look fabulous, so I will try smaller sizes until I get it right.

Best old school kicks to date - I find that these are made much better than Puma or the retro Asics. Many retro sneakers have "no make" or support. While I wouldn’t run a marathon in these or use them at the gym they are very comfortable to wear to the office with Khakis, dress pants and Jeans. I wish they came in more colors. They are more comfortable than the samba and are very true to size.

Awesome - This is a great pair of shoes. Very comfortable and make my feet look smaller. Zappos even upgraded my shipping from standard to next day free of charge. :)

Steppin on a cloud - These shoes are awesome! I love how soft and comfy they feel on my feet! A definite two thumbs up! :D

I rock these shoes for work and play! I have to wear nicer black shoes for work and these just are the perfect fit, been rockin the Samoa style for so many years and these black ones round out my collection. I love adidas the most!

It's what it claims - I would order from Zappos again. They live up to their claims. I was very pleased with my purchase and would do so again in the near future. Thanks to all the people who made my purchase a pleasure.

Very comfortable - Great shoes very comfortable. They fit like a glove and are true to size. I enjoy Adidas shoes and this is another pair I can add to my list. I have been wearing Adidas and other brands since I was about thirteen and I’m thirty now. Adidas is definitely at the top of my list when it comes to shoes.

Adidas Samoas are the BEST! This is my fourth pair of Samoas and I was thrilled to see that adidas was making them again and that Zappos was carrying them! They're comfortable and look great with jeans, shorts, casual skirts…everything! My Samoas have traveled with me to Boston, Portland, New York, Berlin, Chicago, and more, and they always look and feel great! I'd highly recommend these shoes!!!

Love the shoes!!! I love these shoes! I keep trying to find the Sambas in my size with no luck, so I went with the Samoa's. So glad I did, these shoes offer great support and they look great. No rubbing on the heel, no rubbing on the tongue (which is shorter than that of the Adidas Gazelle). All around great shoe. It took no time at all to 'wear in' to my own foot contours. Like it was made for me!

Love the Samoa - This is my third pair of Samoa’s and I plan on getting another when these wear thin. First time you put them on, they feel a bit odd. But they break in well and can be dressed up or down.

Zappos rocks - Once again Zappos was great...their delivery service is second to none. My shoes arrived in about 2 days. I still won't buy shoes again from anyone else.

Love my adidas Samoa - This shoe looks great and fits well. Light in weight and goes well with any jeans.

Great - Great, ol'skool shoe. Have not regrets purchasing these. Were a little snug when new bought broke in quick.

Best Sneaker EVER! Bought these four years ago. They are the most comfortable sneaker ever, they go great with shorts. They were so great I had to buy several more pair in as many colors as I could get my hands on!
