Adidas Gazelles The style is supportive without feeling overly stiff, and the rubber sole is so cushiony that it feels like walking on clouds.

Sizing on these shoes runs a full size bigger; you will likely need to order one size down than your normal size. I typically wear a women's size 8 but with this shoe/style, it was a size 7 that fit right. I read in a few reviews to try sizing down a full size but I was skeptical.

While the materials are pretty similar, the Samba is going to have more natural fibers like suede, leather and textile lining. The Gazelles has a synthetic tongue which can feel a bit different on the foot.

However, even today they still boast the same overall timeless design and style. These sneakers have been a worldwide favorite for decades, but I am loving how they are having a trend moment right now.
