Samba OG IE9121 Made in Italy. Full leather. I sized up from an 11-1/2 to 12, and they’re spot on.

Bringing this back from the dead. I‘ve been looking at the Spezial made in Germany version and wondered if anyone already tried them and can comment on the quality of materials etc compared to the made in Vietnam version.
I tried the regular made in Vietnam version on at a store and the fit and feel of the shoe on my feet was great but in my hand, I wouldn‘t really say it‘s worth 110€ full price. One can find these on sale for less which makes it more appealing but recently I‘ve had sneakers dying on me at a rapid rate after only 1 season. Looking for a pick up which will last a few years.

@BalticBob regarding footwear. The only thing I’ve used recently is a pair of Vietnam made hikers. Rain.RDY. I think they’re pretty decent. $100 for waterproof high top with good support and traction. The other bigger name shoes could be different though. Adidas will always be something I go for on sale and use coupons. If you really want that look and high quality. It’s probably worth the Germany price. If not. Get the VN ones on sale.

Picked up the made in Germany Spezial and they are really good. The inside is also actually leather, no fabric backing. I picked them up on a sale, totally worth it!

@indigostiff how did these age?

@BalticBob Thank you as I didn’t know that there were two Adidas threads and have merged them together. I have also removed your duplicate post…

@goosehd thank you for your extremely fast and effective solution

After recently coming to the realization all my shoes over the past 20 years have been a size too small, I picked up some comfort shoes for a change and omg they’re the shit. Love me some ultraboost. Blacked out today.
