Adidas Originals Samba OG | Retro Classic Lightweight Low-Top Skate Shoe (HO6122)
Adidas Originals Samba OG — Retro Classic Lightweight Low-Top Skate Shoe
The original. The Adidas Originals Samba OG is the shoe that started it all — first introduced in 1950 as an indoor football training shoe, the Samba has since become one of the most enduring and culturally significant sneaker silhouettes in history. The OG designation means exactly that: this is the Samba in its most authentic, unaltered form, built to the original specifications that made it iconic.
Design Story
Some shoes are designed. The Samba was discovered. What began as a functional solution for footballers training on frozen pitches became, over seven decades, a cultural artifact worn by everyone from terrace regulars to fashion editors. The HO6122 colorway brings a distinctive palette to the OG silhouette — fresh enough to feel current, considered enough to feel timeless. This is the Samba for those who understand that the best things don’t need to change.

Wear It
The Samba OG works with everything — that’s the point.

The gum sole and leather upper only get better with wear — a shoe that earns its character over time.
