The adidas Samba LT Gets a Glow Up just in time for Summer

The adidas Samba has seen countless updates over the decades, but the LT “Lace & Pearls” brings something completely different to the table. This one trades pitch-ready for playful, updating the Samba LT with next-level charm.

It starts with a smooth black leather base, keeping things grounded. But then come the pink lace details woven into the 3-Stripes and heel, adding soft contrast. There’s also a Long Tongue (LT) version of the Samba here, a nod to the classic pairs that kicked it all off.

Then come the extras. Satin ribbon laces replace the standard set-up, threaded with removable pearl charms. One of those even takes the shape of a heart, wrapped in gold, It’s bold without being over the top. Underfoot, the gum sole remains untouched.

The adidas Samba LT “Lace & Pearls” is expected to drop Summer 2025. Let us know if you’ll be adding these to your rotation, and be sure to keep it locked for your best chance to secure your size!
