The sneakers have spawned collaborations from the likes ofWales Bonner, Dover Street Market, and even Dinsey.
But after a prolonged period of exposure, it seems like the Samba hype is finally dying down.
So why do I want a pair now more than ever?

Even Harry Styles and Paul Mescal gave me pangs of envy when I saw them in their kicks.
I cant help but feel a little silly worrying about the right time to buy a pair of Sambas.
So, if you (like me) need a friendly reminder: who cares whats trending?

Nothing about a pair of black-and-white tennis shoes will ever be anything but timeless.
