Adidas Samba OG Shoes

I just got a new pair of Adidas Samba OG indoor soccer shoes. They don't have the annoying overly long flip-over tongue, so they cost an extra $30. I guess that's like when Fender used to charge $200 more for a fretless bass because then they wouldn't get to have to go to the trouble to measure, fret, and add inlays to the fingerboard, and not doing stuff like that costs money, don't you know?

I wonder if the "OG" in the name stands for: "Own Goal"? (An own goal is when a soccer player accidentally scores a goal against their own team.)
