adidas Unisex-Adult The Velosamba Cycling Shoe

Everywhere I go I get compliments on these bad boys. Extremely comfortable to cycle in and great for around town riding. Would recommend to anyone looking for a stylish cycling shoe. I wear a 9.5 in most shoes, 10 fits perfectly.

The cleat sits flush with the outsole so it makes it pretty easy to walk. They do run on the narrow side, but I think that’s typical for any of the Samba’s.

These were my first SPD cycling shoes.They looked pretty nice, easy to walk in and clip into SPD pedals.After a few months of abuse riding in all sorts of conditions, the soles tore off.In spite of that, I'd say they did the job well for their lifespan.I recommend them for laidback recreational bicycling.

As you would expect, these are stiffer than normal shoes. That being said, they are pretty easy to walk in. I ride to work and have been able to work full shifts (without swapping for another pair of shoes) on my feet with no problems. Going on grocery runs or to cafés and bars would be no problem while wearing these.These shoes don't seem to tap dance, but on rough concrete or asphalt there can be a bit of grinding. Maybe not the best for your daily beaters, but great for their intended purpose. I plan on getting another pair in different color. Order 1/2 size up

I'm glad I bought these on sale. I did not expect a shiny, iridescent rainbow white pattern, with a dark cream sole. The contrast in the toe stitching panels makes it look more like a taupe bowling shoe, with a disco ball on it than a modern all white shoe which is what I wanted. I really like retro soccer shoes, but now when the first thing people see is the classic toe cover. I don't like THAT much contrast on my finger foot lol. So, look VERY hard at the pictures because all of those contrasts are much more prominent in person.The main reason I am returning the shoes is because of the narrow toebox. I do not have a narrow foot, but I lift weights, walk around barefoot and have a pair of Whitins. Once you get used to having your foot work like a foot some of the fashion shoes are too much. If like me, Vans eras make your pinky toes bleed and scar you will want to avoid this shoe. It's the right size for me (plenty of room up front without sliding, heel cup fits, ordered my usual Adidas size), but the narrowness of the toe box is painful. Even by Adidas standards it is so narrow. There is also a hump where the cleat hardware is. I thought maybe taking the insole out would give my toes some room, but the insole has to cover the cleat pocket. I am returning them and ordered some shoes from Specialized. Other than that, the whole ordering process was smooth and they are well made. Just narrow and look very different in household lighting. Another note, they're stiffer than casual shoes (good for cycling, but not stiff like a road shoe) and the heel cup felt secure enough for fixed gear use. My daily driver has a Flip/Flop hub so I was hoping to use them fixed. I think they will work for people that don't have their balance thrown off by the narrow toeboxes.

My partner usually wears a 12-13 shoe, we downsized to an 11.5 (but I think he wears his sneaks a little loose). He loves them for indoor cycling. They are his introductory pair of cycle shoes and appreciates the versatility of the clips being recessed so he can do squats and walk around the gym without switching shoes. Plus they’re cute!

My order was quick to arrive in less than 2 weeks. Shoes are very comfortable to use

I have many Adidas shoes and needed a bike version. Got a great deal. They are all vinyl so will last. Replaced my Shimano chips with just two screws. Very comfortable and well made
