Adidas' Samba is arguably one of the most iconic silhouettes in the footwear's heritage-filled catalog. Starting its life in 1949 as a design intended for icy and snowy football pitches, the Samba was later used as a choice for indoor football due to its competent grip. Eventually adopted by football casuals and skateboarders, today the Samba has been lifted into a position of status thanks to its clean profile and limited-edition models.
