To clean Adidas Sambas, especially considering their typical materials like leather and suede, it's important to follow specific steps to avoid damage and maintain their appearance.

Cleaning Adidas Sambas (Leather and Synthetic)

1. Remove laces and insoles to clean separately.
2. Brush off loose dirt with a soft-bristle brush.
3. Mix warm water with a sneaker cleaning solution.
4. Use a soft cloth or brush dipped in the solution to gently clean the upper surfaces in circular motions.
5. For outsoles, use a stiffer brush to remove tougher dirt.
6. Air dry naturally, avoiding direct heat. Stuff with paper to maintain shape.
7. Use deodorizer to keep them fresh.

Cleaning Suede Sambas

1. Avoid water initially to prevent stains.
2. Use a soft or hard bristle brush or a suede brush to dry brush off surface dirt carefully.
3. If deeper cleaning is needed, lightly wet clean with a soft-bristle brush, shaking off excess water to avoid soaking.
4. Use a suede eraser or a standard eraser to remove tough stains.
5. After cleaning, dry shoes outside evenly.
6. Restore the suede nap with a suede revive brush or bundle to bring back texture.
7. Optionally condition with a suitable mink oil conditioner to revive color and protect the suede.

Additional Tips

• Avoid machine washing to prevent damage.
• Clean laces separately by soaking them in water and cleaner.
• For detailed areas like Adidas stripes, use a microfiber towel to gently clean without added moisture on suede parts.
• Use cleaning kits designed for sneaker materials for best results.

These methods ensure the longevity and appearance of Adidas Sambas while accommodating the delicate nature of suede and leather materials.
