Sambas are older than us and have their own wikipedia page and manufacturer page. Is it a color or variation you like?

Adidas is especially extreme in this. I really loved the Adidas Chile, and recently the trimm trab, both gone. I will follow the upper persons comment ans byu 2-3 pieces when I like a shoe from adidas.
