adidas Gives the Samba OG a Nylon Treatment
Available in “Focused Olive” and “Preloved Ink S24” colorways.
adidas has unveiled new iterations of its ever-popular Samba OG, this time opting for nylon as the primary upper material as opposed to its more common leather makeup.
The nylon pack includes two different colorways, namely a dark green “Focused Olive” and a dark blue “Preloved Ink S24.” Each pair features what appears to be a crinkle nylon-like material as the base layer of its construction, with accenting color-matched leather layers at the eyelets.
Design elements unique to the “Focused Olive” pair include contrasting off-white leather at the heel and side stripe logos, as well as a gum sole — providing the shoe with a vintage look. As for the “Preloved Ink S24” pair, it features color-matched leather at the heel and stripes, as well as a navy blue outsole, giving it a more understated look compared to its counterpart.
Both shoes feature leather liners, adidas Originals branded tongue tags and “adidas SAMBA” branding stamped at the lateral side of the heel. The Samba OG nylon pack is expected to begin its launch with the “Focused Olive” pair on January 3, with the “Preloved Ink S24” to follow on January 15. Both pairs will be released via adidas official site, for an anticipated retail price of $120 USD each.
