Adidas Samba Vegan White Gum

Released on 16 June 2021 and part of adidas's Samba line. This release has a synthetic upper in Cloud White/Core Black/Gum. The Samba Vegan is the version of the shoe built without animal materials, and it is a genuinely interesting test of a silhouette whose character has always been tied to leather and suede. White with a gum sole is the most traditional way to present it, so the only thing that has changed is what the shoe is made of. adidas has been building this indoor football trainer for long enough that it became the base layer of European terrace and casual dressing alongside the Superstar and the Stan Smith, and a non animal build is how a heritage shape stays available to buyers whose reasons for choosing it are ethical rather than aesthetic.
