My obsession with the Adidas Samba first began in fifth grade. One of my classmates wore the OG classic in black nearly every day, teamed with a pair of Soffe shorts that were rolled precisely three times at the waist. She always beat the boys at soccer during recess. I admired her fashion sense from a young age, and I think that's because she wore her outfits with confidence and exuded a certain toughness - especially in her Sambas. It's possible she was even my very first style crush. Today, retro sneakers are having a resurgence, and that certainly doesn't exclude the iconic Samba, a . . .
