    I got my dad these shoes for Father’s Day, and he started crying because he wanted these when he was a kid but couldn’t afford them. He had a really rough childhood. But he gave up drinking when I was a kid, that’s a real man right there.
    By the way. The longer tongue is folded over your tied laces when playing futbol to get a more even contact with the ball upon impact.

      thats why i call the sambas; the greatest silhouette of all time. over 35 millions pairs sold worldwide since 1949. how great is that. and to be honest I notice especially in the common wealth countries sambas are darn popular over dunks jordans.

  • @Sneaker_Fox
    @Sneaker_Fox 11 месяцев назад +25

    They’re trending bc they’re clean, old school, and they’re a classic silhouette. But the main reason is that they’re cheap and very affordable. They’re trending bc the price is right! I used to wear these in college and I would buy the Indoor Soccer version of these sambas bc they were durable too for playing in. I used to buy the limited edition version of these with different soccer teams. They were solid shoes. Still own a few pairs till today lol

    Hi Chris! The Samba, Gazelle, Handball Spezial, Puma Palermo and GV special (and other shoes) where knows as the casuals or terrace trend that the football fans use to use on the 70s in UK.
    At that time all that’s shoes where like the OG Jordan’s now (or something like that) and now Adidas and Puma are bringing back this trend I believe because Nike didn’t exist at that time so the can’t compite with any shoe

    @javierlandaverde4108 5 месяцев назад

    Fun fact: The long indoor soccer version. That tongue can be adjusted because of the ridges of the tongue. You basically apply pressure to that ridge tongue and it starts to bend lower to the shoe and that is how you lower your tongue. These versions are the OG but the tongue has been modify for the modern consumer and / sport style shoe.

    Hi Nightwing fun fact on the original Adidas Samba the original variant of the Samba was a old school high top soccer/association football cleats/boots originally made from a rock hard Kangaroo Leather upper though the gum sole was originally made for ice surfaces for the winter in Germany it ended up debuting in the 1950 FIFA World Cup in Brazil which is how it got its name “Samba” the 1950 World Cup in Brazil was one of the most dramatic and anticipated World Cup tournaments in the 93 year history of the World Cup out of the now 22 World Cups ever played this was the 4th edition of the FIFA World Cup and at the time the first since France 1938 World Cup 12 year hiatus due to WWII in the end Uruguay beat Brazil in the de facto final 2-1 making it one if not the biggest upset in World Cup history the win (Uruguay’s 2 title and to date last) was so unexpected it’s known as the Maracanazo name after the venue of the game the Estadio Maracana/Maracana Stadium after the shocking defeat the Brazilian Government declared a time of mourning and many people sadly passed from reason I’m not going to say but you can guess

    If you’re ever in the mood for a comparison, especially since you love skate shoes… pick up a pair of the Samba ADV. The skate version is better in every way. Materials, padding, comfort, construction. The ADV kills it, and looks exactly the same on foot.
