Adidas Samba OG HP5053 Blue Suede Crochet Stripe Mule

The most tactile Samba Mule. The Adidas Samba OG HP5053 shares the backless mule construction with the other Samba Mule colourways — but the material combination is unlike any of them. The upper is slate blue suede: matte, soft, with the directional nap of suede catching light differently depending on the angle. And the three stripes are not leather, not mesh, not knit — they are crochet. Cream-coloured, open-weave, three-dimensional crochet panels that sit proud of the suede surface and create a texture contrast that is visible from across the room. The effect is a shoe that looks handcrafted, artisanal, closer to fashion than to sport — while still being unmistakably a Samba. “SAMBA” is printed on the side in gold lettering. The tongue and heel counter are cream. The sole is honey amber gum, semi-transparent. Comes in the classic blue Adidas Originals box. Available in EU 36–45 — the most craft-forward, most fashion-adjacent shoe in the entire Adidas Samba Mule range.
