adidas Samba Classic (Black)

Hi!

i just got the shoes. They look wonderful. You can wear them virtually with everything. Great looking and comfortable. Picture does not tell how good they are given the price range they are in, best buy.

I use these shoes for Tai Chi. They are superior to other shoes I have worn for this purpose. They are a bit narrow, so watch out if you have wide feet. Also, I'm usually size 9, but these are almost too short. I maybe should have gone for the 9 1/2.

This classic workhorse is functional and affordable. It is well made. Its sizes run pretty true and it seems to adapt to a wider foot more than some of the other brands. The sole is slip-resistant on regular gym hardwood floors so it is a great shoe for indoor soccer. It also is very usable on artificial turf surfaces although other shoes such as the Adidas Copa Mundial turf version provide better traction, at a slightly higher price. All in all a cost-effective, multi-purpose, classicly Adidas-looking shoe.

I bought these shoes for my brother and he absolutely adores them. You can't find them in white in any Adidas store so it was nice that Amazon has it in the right color. That explains the slightly higher price than stores charge for the black color. The size is true to fit and it looks just like in the picture. You can't go wrong with a classic like this.

The shoes that I ordered fit great. I have yet to play indoor (or any) soccer in them but I'd imagine they work great because they are reminiscent of martial arts shoes, which is what I use them for. There is one thing, these shoes are pretty squeaky once you break them in so don't expect to be a ninja wearing them.
