adidas just turned the Samba into a climbing shoe. The brand kept the silhouette’s shape but reworked the sole, fitting it with a curved Five Ten STEALTH Rubber outsole in place of the flat bottom built for indoor soccer. Two colorways are set to release in October 2026, and the first pair drops October 6th for $120 through adidas.com.
Climbing shoes have crossed over into general sneaker rotation over the last several seasons, showing up in output from skate and fashion labels alike as the category’s utilitarian shape becomes a style statement on its own. adidas brings real technical credibility to that trend here: the brand has owned Five Ten, a company whose STEALTH rubber compound is considered among the best in climbing, since 2011. adidas has also kept the Samba line active through spinoffs like the Samba Mule and collaborations such as the Kith x Samba pack, and JustFreshKicks will track additional colorways as adidas confirms them.
The adidas Samba Climbing Shoe Design
The rubber sole wraps around most of the toe and heel area, adding grip along with impact protection for working through rock pockets. Up top, the shoe holds onto the Samba’s usual build, a leather base paired with the model’s signature serrated stripes along the sides. The ankle collar looks to be neoprene, rising up around the Achilles for a tight fit, and is secured by pull straps set on either side.
Is The adidas Samba Climbing Shoe Actually Built For Climbing?
Yes. It replaces the Samba’s flat sole with a curved Five Ten STEALTH Rubber outsole, the same rubber technology used in dedicated climbing shoes since adidas acquired Five Ten in 2011, making this more than a lifestyle reskin.
