adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Soccer Shoe
CUSTOMER REVIEW
I have experienced both these pairs. Breakdown:
CLASSIC: adidas Men's Samba Classic Soccer Shoe
- Larger tongue
- easier to slip on/off
- medium/enhanced arch support. If you wear air-soled running shoes, you probably won't even notice. Personally, I'm NOT A FAN.
- The arch support has changed in the last 3 years (the last time I bought this pair). Be warned!
ORIGINALS:adidas Originals Men's Samba Reflective Sneaker
- Smaller tongue
- Old-school arch support (meaning flatter/next to none). I have worn nothing but Chucks and older Sambas happily for many years, and identify with the barefoot-running crowd, so for me, flatter is better.
- Harder to slip on/off, but once it's on, it fits like a glove!
- Yes, they squeak like everyone says. Doesn't bother me, but then again I'm not a movie usher, burglar or otherwise occupied in the skulking arts.
Some people will prefer one over the other. For me, the clear winner is ORIGINALS.
