It feels like it was just yesterday when the adidas Samba Jane took its first steps. Now, the ballet-coded sneaker is all grown-up.

The latest version of the Mary-Jane Samba is quite mature, featuring "aged" tan leather uppers that give the sneaker a nice vintage-style look.

The retro-ish leather also makes the sneaker look quite luxe. This classy vibe is only further enhanced by the gilded branding moments and brogue-style details.

It's almost like the sister to those recent brogue Samba WTR dress shoes.

The Samba Jane has appeared in various cute looks, including serious ballet-style outfits. But with the latest, the adidas model truly becomes a fine young lady.
