The Adidas VELOSAMBA cycling shoe. Finally a cycling shoe fo the city that doesn’t sacrifice style in favor of function.
We tested both color ways of the VELOSAMBA with and with out cleats installed on the bottom of the shoe. The results were remarkable and very satisfying. The VELOSAMBA is designed for short bike commutes and walking around in relative comfort. Don’t get it twisted and no point will you forget that you are wearing cycling shoes. However, you will experience a new level of comfort when walking around in the VELOSAMBA. The VELOSAMBA is available at Adidas.com for a pretty decent price of $120.00. A small price to pay for a beautifully designed cycling shoe masquerading as a classic sneaker.
We both went true to size and the fit was spot on.

So I have been using the VELOSAMBA as well as the Adidas Gravel shoe for a while now. I can honestly say after months of using both shoes, I tend to gravitate towards the Gravel shoe. There are a few reasons why. I feel like the Gravel shoe is more comfortable and much lighter, I also prefer the styling of the Gravel Shoe. Maybe I will use my VELOSAMBA more in the summer but I kinda doubt it. Hope this helps anyone out there make a decision.

I just ordered a pair of these after wanting them for so long. Hopefully they can take the abuse of being a commuter/all purpose city/messenger shoe. I dont expect them to feel as stiff or supportive as a proper clipless MTB shoe, but I cant deny the balance of style and utility of these shoes. If these last nearly as long as a normal pair of Sambas, theyll be well worth it.

I think they will last a decent amount of time, depending on how hard you are on them.

Great review thanks! I just bought these for $72 on what it seemed a flash sale by Adidas as these went back up to $130. Yet to try em’ on the bike. But, shoes look solid and fitted to size just fine. They feel comfortable to wear on the bike but feel sturdy to walk on for longer distance or duration.

If you're not using cleats then wouldn't you be just better off with a standard Samba?

@KRTLyfe 2 жыл бұрын

Possibly but you don’t get the stiffness with the standard Samba. I used vans for years as cycling shoes and they are great but on really long rides that flexing sole can get a bit uncomfortable.

These are such a great idea, back in the old days and with most racing style shoes, they were impossible to walk in. If you had to walk up a hill, or even on a solid floor, it was like being on ice & not comfortable. I now have a pair of Giro Rumble for my Road & MB and they are fine, but not for a lot of walking, these seem much better idea for general riding/commuting/work rides etc just need to check what size will fit my feet, but I'm yet to see any in store which is a pain

@KRTLyfe Жыл бұрын

They are pretty decent to walk around in but i still found them a little too stiff for “normal” use. I think these definitely lean more towards cycling for sure. I would get a bit of annoying heel slip do to the stiffness.

Yo I’m not sure if you still respond to comments but if you do … are these comfortable/work fine as a walking sneaker? I’m not a cyclist but I was just wondering if the cleats or the hole in the sole makes it unpractical for normal commuting use

@KRTLyfe Жыл бұрын

Definitely not a “walking” sneaker, you can definitely walk in them easier than some cycling shoes. IMHO the sole is way too stiff to wear for casual use. Recently I tried a pair of Specialized cycling shoes that have a “flex zone” these are way more comfortable for walking unfortunately they look like cycling shoes vs these.
