Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe 

We are here to review the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe, which is a very affordable, but also very high quality, indoor soccer shoe. It’s one of the better options for indoor games.

Who is this product for?

The Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is an affordable soccer shoe that you would purchase if you want something that has a pretty decent level of quality but is not going to cost a fortune. Moreover, beware that this is, of course, an indoor soccer shoe, so it is not something you would get for a professional outdoor soccer game.

What’s included?

When you purchase the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe, you might think that they look more like skateboarding shoes, but no, they are soccer shoes. Here you get a real leather soccer shoe, one with a decent EVA midsole, combined with a traction pattern ideal for indoor games on solid ground.

Overview of features

The Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe does have some nice features that are definitely worth mentioning. For one, do keep in mind that this is an indoor soccer shoe. Now, it does have a decent traction pattern, which means that you should be able to grip that indoor soccer court pretty well.

It is designed for speed, acceleration, and maneuverability, but beware that it will not do well in wet conditions, especially in wet outdoor grass, as this is not a pair of cleats, but indoor soccer shoes. With that being said, the outsole on the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is made with premium rubber, so it should stay in one piece for quite some time to come, plus it is a non-scuffing outsole, so you don’t have to worry about marking up the court.

The Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is a full grain leather upper soccer shoe, which we do really like. The fact of the matter is that when it comes to shoes, coats, and anything in between, there is really nothing tougher or more durable than leather. It has a level of durability which you need to play a fast-paced and rough game of indoor soccer.

Now, the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is not the most flexible soccer shoe around, especially for the first few times you wear it, as it does need a bit of time to break in. However, the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is a lightweight shoe, one that won’t weigh you down too much, plus it has a pretty decent level of flexibility. Once you break it in a certain amount, it should really move with your foot, which is probably what you are looking for.

The Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe does also come with an EVA insole, which helps to provide you with a bit of padding, shock absorption, and limited support. However, keep in mind that the underfoot support here is fairly limited, Yet, they do come with removable sock liners for moisture wicking and a snug fit, something we should all be able to appreciate.

Tutorial

The only thing which we can really say about the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe is that you can only use them for indoor games. You will slip and fall if you try to use these to play on grass, especially wet grass. Other than that, just ensure that you get the right size, that you have decent socks, and that you tie them snugly.

Pros

• Durable
• Good for indoor acceleration
• Decent padding
• Lightweight

Cons

• Long break-in period
• Limited flexibility

Alternatives

While indoor soccer is fun for some people, it is not for everybody. If you would rather play outdoors on real grass, you are going to need an outdoor soccer shoe to match. One good alternative for you to look at in this case is the Adidas Performance Men's Copa Mundial Soccer Shoe. Another good alternative in case you would rather play outdoors is the PUMA Men's Evopower Vigor 1 FG Soccer Shoe.

Conclusion

There you have it folks, although the Adidas Performance Men's Samba Classic Indoor Soccer Shoe does have a drawback or two, all in all, it’s a pretty darn good indoor soccer shoe to keep in mind.
