With its roots deeply embedded in soccer culture, the adidas Samba has evolved beyond the pitch to become a street style and fashion staple. In recent years, adidas has introduced several iterations and variants of this classic design, one of the latest being the Samba XLG. The XLG variant offers an exaggerated, bold take on the traditional Samba profile. Coming off the heels of the introduction of White Black and Black White renditions and the sneak peek of the Wheat colorway, adidas is set to introduce the Samba XLG in a striking Grey Black color scheme in 2024.
This latest iteration of the adidas Samba XLG offers a fresh take on the timeless Samba design. The sneaker's upper is predominantly suede, featuring dark grey across the t-shaped toe box overlay, midfoot, eyestays, and heel, providing a muted yet sophisticated aesthetic. The black accents on the Three Stripes, heel tab, tongue, and laces offer a sharp contrast, emphasizing the silhouette's classic lines. Metallic Gold Samba branding on the midfoot adds a touch of elegance, which stands out against the sneaker's darker shades. The design is completed with a dark gum rubber sole unit that enhances the sneaker's visual appeal and ensures durability and traction.
The adidas Samba XLG Grey Black will release in 2024 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the sneaker is priced at $110.
