Gender Inclusive Samba OG Sneaker

This is how I received my package, the product was damaged. Nordstrom is the worst online store, and bad quality control at the warehouse.

This is how my shoes arrived! They shipped a shoebox in a bag. This was a gift and thanks to someone with NO common sense....I had to return them.

These are my second pair of Sambas. I feel really lucky to have snagged a pair in the black/cream color way. I purchased both the women’s size 6.5 and 6 (or men’s 5.5 and 5, UK size 4 and 3.5 respectively). I usually wear women’s size 6. Both sizes fit though the 6 was more snug. I went with the 6.5. Love how these are comfortable, affordable, and a casual classic!

I saw a couple reviews regarding quality control with Nordstrom and I wish I listened. I happened to purchase something other than these shoes that has yet to arrive. The shoes came today, 3-days after ordering (which is great)! Opened the box to find shoes that appear wrinkled and worn. Regarding the quality of the shoe itself - it’s fine. My normal size fits well and there is no issue with the integrity of the shoe itself. It’s exactly as described. However, the right shoe was visibly damaged (appears to be torn) and the insides of each shoe were loaded with black hair. Clearly someone purchased these and returned them after wearing them (around the house maybe because the soles seem to be in good condition)? It’s very disappointing to open a package to find a $100 pair of sneakers that are not in new condition, let alone dirty and damaged. I’m not big with collecting shoe boxes, but the box was even damaged. Will be returning and hopefully repurchasing elsewhere.

Shoes arrived in a damaged box. This is the second time this has happened within a week. She looks slightly worn.

I’m obsessed! This are so pretty … a metallic charcoal gray with baby pink satin shoelaces.

Love this color way. I have the original black & white as well. When these were in stock I knew I had to have them. I’m a true 8.5 & they fit true to size for me.

My shoe size is 8.5 but I read reviews that said to size down so I initially ordered them (elsewhere) in size 8. The 8 was too short so I ordered a second pair from Nordstorm in 8.5 and they were too long. So they didnt fit in either size but I also found them very stiff and the tongues jabbed painfully into the front of my ankle. I wear a medium shoe and they also seemed a little wide. I couldnt wear them so they were returned. I also wanted to mention that these sneakers are marked up substantially by most retailers due to their popularity but I appreciated that Nordstorm only charged $100 which, I assume, is the suggested retail price.

The shoe is cute and fit well but the tongue of the shoe is stuff and jabs into my ankle. The tongue seems to made with a plastic leather that isn’t padded so I couldn’t imagine being able to wear these with no-show socks. Wish they had a better build quality because they’re cute.

Made terribly. I’ve ordered this shoe 2 times from 2 different places & they did not look like this. The shoe is made horrible & they feel really light. The other 2 pairs I had had weight to them and a real fur label on the bottom. I am not happy at all & Nordstrom refuses to post my review saying my description is inappropriate when in reality they just don’t want u guys to see this.

Debated about buying these for a long while. Had similar shoes back in youth and don’t typically enjoy retro shoes, but I love these. Normally wear 6.5 to 7 shoe. Most shoes I wear are 6.5 and most sneakers are 7. I bought these in 6.5 and they fit perfect.

I love these shoe but the tongue is hard and rubs and digs in on top of your foot like really bad I had to return them what a bummer … the rest was perfect
