Why to Love Adidas Samba, We’ll Never Run Out Of Reasons

Is there a pair of sneakers in your childhood that was simple and minimalist, that later blew up becoming a super fashionable iconic sneaker?

Suddenly when you look around you see everyone copying that pair, as some celebrity rocked them. adidas Samba has long outgrown its original identity as an indoor football shoe and is now well-appreciated in all kinds of settings.

Snapshot of the Past:
The name is extracted from the popular Brazilian genre of music "Samba". Adidas was designed in the late 1940s specifically for football with an innovative rubber sole that could improve traction on icy surfaces. It also made its way to skateboarders due to its grippy sole, durable upper padded leather, reinforced T-toe and understated aesthetic.

Standout Characteristic of Samba’s:
Suction cup-like concave bubbles have been primarily present in all Adidas Samba models making it a point of appeal and a distinctive trait.
