The year was 1950, and the adidas Samba shoes had just stepped out on the world stage. The pitch would never be the same. Soccer players were the first to fall under its spell, using the grippy sole to train in icy weather. Next up, skaters co-opted the design and took it to their decks. With smooth leather, 3-Stripes and that recognizable rubber sole, this authentic pair is bringing back the heritage for a new generation of creators.
