Best Adidas Samba Sneakers Alternatives That Are Perfect For Grown Women

I don’t know about you, but Adidas Sambas look like the a different version of Adidas Stan Smith that I used to wear in my 20s. If you feel the same way, but want to embrace patterned low top sneakers? Here are the best adidas sambas sneakers alternatives you will thank me later for sharing. 

And some of them you might already own. 

My Thoughts On Adidas Sambas

Fashion is an individual choice! 

That being said, these shoes look a bit childish to me specially because of the complete adoption by Gen Zs. My teen daughter wears these, and I cannot see myself to wear them. 

The platforms or soles of these shoes are thicker which resembles the converse thickness. This is one of the reasons, I have not been a fan of these sneakers. I do love the suede that gives these sneakers an elevated look. 

But I think I have had enough of the 3 stripes of the Nike tick logo. Yes, I am not sharing those either. 

But there are some fun ones. 

Adidas Samba Alternatives

Puma Palermo Sneakers

These instantly became my favorite. The sophisticated pattern and mix of leather and suede fabric makes them interesting. I love the minimal sole, but these are really comfortable to walk in. 

I have ran through airports in them. They look great in colors as well as in white which is my favorite base color. 

These look great with wide leg pants or wide leg jeans. 

Go half a size up in them. 

Veja Volley Low Top Sneakers

These are not new but they are minimal and perfect for daily wear or work wear. They look stylish, but the patterns are not over the top. 

And you can pick them up in any color and look chic in them. These sneakers again have a mix of leather and suede. The suede front look fun but also adds more detail to a basic sneaker. 

I specially love the bark shade of suede with white leather. Again, the sole or base is minimal, so looks adult friendly. And you can wear it with jeans, skirts and also tailored pants. 

Cole Haan GrandPrø Breakaway Sneakers

I am actually really impressed by the Cole Haan GrandPrø Breakaway Sneakers. Love how this brand is not just making basic snow shoes, but delving into stylish footwear for women. 

These sneakers look sophisticated and perfect pair to add to your daily outfits. They will elevate your athleisure looks. 

The stone white suede looks polished with the quilted leather. I think this is an excellent piece of footwear. And will elevate all your casual outfits. 

Sam Edelman Tenny Sneakers

Sam Edelman Tenny sneakers do not have a contrast fabric in the front. But because of the stitching details, these sneakers give you that look easily. 

They also come in suede and leather. But I love these in full white. They are an elevated version of your basic white sneakers. 

And the Sam Edelman logo differentiates them very well. 

But if you are into color, found a gorgeous indigo pair in suede at Nordstrom

The low top with the detailed design, makes this a fun pair to wear.

Steve Madden Genius Sneakers

We are talking about shoes, so how can we forget Steve Madden. They are one of my most favorite affordable shoe brand that never disappoints. 

The Genius sneakers look minimal yet have all the pattern we need. The black and white contrast adds a luxe sophistication to the pair. And the gray suede top is perfect combo. 

These sneakers look way more expensive than they are. I also love that the brand paid attention to keep the shoe laces exact color as the leather. 

Vince Oasis Sneakers

The Vince Oasis sneakers are the luxury sneakers that won’t break your bank. They are on the expensive side, but the design and craftsmanship speaks for it. 

These sneakers come in both all leather as well as leather and suede combo. And I actually love the all leather with burgundy combo which is perfect for fall. But you can also wear them all year round. 

The burgundy shines through with the white leather fabric. 

If you want to stick to the basic, go for the basic white and black with gray suede top. This will never go out of style. 

Dolce Vita Notice Sneakers

Dolce Vita Notice sneakers look minimal yet chic for fall season. They come in so many shades that it’s hard to pick a favorite. 

But if you are going for one pair of these Adidas samba alternatives, then go for the White grey leather shade. 

They look polished and yet the patterns make it fun to wear. 

The soles are low which makes them minimal. You can easily pair these with jeans or tailored pants.
