The new adidas Stan Smith Lux Shoes take the time-honored wear-with-anything silhouette inspired by Stan Smith and gives it a genderless update with premium details and a nod to the OG. adidas says fans can recognize the Stan Smith silhouette, even from a distance. The tennis great and long-time adidas collaborator says he’s always thought of his namesake shoe as a canvas, allowing adidas designers to create inspired iterations using various colors and materials. To that end, adidas crafted the court-inspired adidas Stan Smith Lux Shoes with a buttery-soft leather inner lining. The shoe boasts an extra leather patch inside the heel for premium comfort and durability.
The Stan Smith Lux Shoes feature elegant detailing using foil branding on the tongue, representing the collaboration with both brand names and logos. Versions of both brand logos are also debossed on the outside heel. For over 50 years, the adidas Stan Smith shoe has remained an iconic design, transcending fashion trends and subcultures. adidas says the shoe’s lasting appeal lies in its simple yet premium style. For example, this silhouette features intricate 360-stitching detail around the shoe to reduce bonding gaps.
The new adidas Stan Smith Lux Shoes continue the tradition with the exact fit as the other Stan Smith classics. And these Lux edition shoes come in three premium colors: Crystal White, Off White, and Core Black. The new adidas Stan Smith Lux Shoes are available online at adidas in the Originals collection for $145.
