This was a great review and comparison, Habon! You have really helped me in deciding between these two styles. Thank you! My only reason for considering Spezials or even Gazelles instead of Sambas is because I would love a greater choice of colourways. I just wish the Sambas came in a few more colour combinations than we're currently offered. Thank you so much for the great information you have given on fit and comfort as well as notable differences between the two. Great job!
I am so glad you said you could pick your fav between the two… i think they are both unique in their own way. However Sambas for me are the winner as I am very tall so don’t want a high sole. Flatter the better for me. Of course I will be getting Spezials too 😂👍😜

Same here, just need to settle on a colour
Would you say that the toe box is smaller on the Spezial than on the Samba? Or are the models the identical in this respect?
I didn't notice a difference tbh. Both were spacious
My inside sole came in the exact same way and I was literally searching if that was normal. So now by seeing your video I guess it is
yh it seems like that must be the case
Spezial = upgrade version of samba
Did you get your normal size in the spezial?
I sized up by half a size
Thanks!
