Samba, Gazelle, Stan Smith – the adidas Originals sneaker sale brings the brand’s most recognisable silhouettes into end of season pricing, with previous-season colourways from the spring collection now up to 30% off across men’s, women’s, and kids’ sizing. Originals sit apart from performance footwear: flat, everyday-friendly builds designed for how sneakers actually get worn day to day. Colour choice and size availability decide most Originals purchases, since these silhouettes rarely see discount windows.
For the latest colourways and new drops at full price, the Samba collection is the place to start. For end of season deals across all footwear categories, browse all shoes in the EOSS sale.
Choose based on your foot shape and intended styling. The Samba has a low-profile, flat sole and a narrow last – best for those who prefer a sleek, close-to-ground feel and suit slim or straight-leg trousers. The Gazelle is slightly wider with suede panelling and works across casual and athleisure outfits. The Stan Smith has the cleanest silhouette with a cupsole construction – most versatile across smart-casual and everyday wear. Browse the Stan Smith collection to compare current colourways with what’s available in the EOSS sale.
Sale colourways are from previous seasons – they may be shades or colour combinations that have been refreshed or replaced in the current line-up. Core colourways (white/green on the Stan Smith, black/white on the Samba, navy/white on the Gazelle) tend to persist across seasons and often appear in both the sale and the full-price range. Less common or seasonal colourways are more likely to appear only in the EOSS sale as one-off opportunities.
Yes – there are notable fit differences between Originals silhouettes. The Samba and Spezial have a narrower, more pointed last – those with wider feet often size up half a size. The Stan Smith and Superstar have a more standard width and typically run true to size. The Gazelle and Campus fall between these – generally true to size but slightly snug across the width for broader feet. Use adidas Lebanon’s Free Returns if the fit isn’t right after trying.
The Samba was designed in 1950 as an indoor football training shoe for icy European pitches. The Stan Smith was introduced as a tennis shoe in the 1970s and became one of adidas’s best-selling styles of all time. The Gazelle dates from 1966 as a versatile indoor sport and training shoe. The Superstar was launched in 1969 as a basketball court shoe. All four were originally performance footwear and have since transitioned into lifestyle icons – their construction retains traces of their original sport purposes.
For Lebanon’s casual outdoor culture, adidas Originals from the sale work across a wide range of daily looks. The Samba pairs well with straight-leg jeans, chino shorts, or relaxed trousers. The Stan Smith suits smarter casual wear. The Gazelle in suede works with both athleisure and casual looks. Browse women’s shoes in the EOSS sale for Originals options in women’s-specific sizing and colourways that differ from the men’s range.
