The adidas Samba Pony Tonal by Wales Bonner in Core Black is the elevated Samba, rebuilt by designer Grace Wales Bonner with a tonal black pony hair upper. Buy it if you want the Samba shape in a material and finish the standard release never gets, from the collaboration that made the model what it is now.
The upper swaps standard leather and suede for pony hair with tonal black detailing and a gum outsole, keeping the low-slung Samba profile and T-toe overlay. It reads dressier than a normal Samba, which is why these get worn with tailoring and denim rather than only with sweats.
Best for anyone already in the Samba rotation who wants a pair with real texture, and for buyers who follow the Wales Bonner releases specifically. Sambas run narrow and long, so most people go down a half size.
This pair is pre-owned, size 8.5, OG all, in lightly worn condition. Condition is shown in the photos, so please review them and confirm you are satisfied before purchasing. All sales are final on used pairs. Authenticity is guaranteed and every pair is inspected in house before it ships from our Tempe, Arizona warehouse.
