One of the most classic adidas Originals silhouettes is receiving a luxe update. The Samba OG is dropping in a sleek, black snakeskin leather iteration as a part of its Made in Italy umbrella. Piggybacking off of the recently released crocodile Made in Italy model, the shoe continues to highlight attention to detail and craftsmanship for the classic silhouette.
Beloved by many for several years, the Samba OG is inspired by black patent leather dress shoes. While this iteration is an updated version of the 1950s classic indoor soccer shoe, this one is designed to be worn as a party of your daily lifestyle. From the upper to the lining, the details are refined by hand. The upper is is cordovan leather and features hand-painted finishes to give the shoe its luxurious snakeskin leather touch. The Three Stripes branding is prominently placed in white, going back to adidas’ roots. With black leather heel counters to match the laces as well as the insoles and rubber outsole, the shoe is expected to be a promising classic for years to come.
Look out for the adidas Originals Samba OG Made in Italy arriving at select retailers and online at adidas for approximately $350 USD on June 7.
