Well stocked with decades worth of innovative footwear, the adidas archive is a treasure trove of classic designs. Though many Silhouettes have impacted culture throughout the years, none are more timeless than the Superstar & Stan Smith. Celebrating 50 years of Superstar adidas Originals presents the Superstan - an unprecedented merging of two archival icons.
The Superstar has been part of the uniform of changemakers since it's inception. White leather. Contrasting black stripes. Bold shell-toe design. The sneaker is eye-catching in any scenario. Similarly, with its distinctive white and green colourway subtle three stripes branding and clean leather upper, the original Stan Smith stands proud today as one of the worlds most recognisable sneakers. Paying homage to the unmistakable legacies of both silhouettes, the Superstan brings archival rivals together in a way only adidas can.
So what's the Superstan all about? Taking design cues from the unique heritage of both silhouettes, the Superstan advances a uniquely blended aesthetic. Featuring a white leather upper, timeless fairway green colour pops, perforated three-stripe details and an iconic tongue label displaying the face of Stan Smith himself, the sneaker sits atop classic Superstar tooling. This is all capped off with the iconic shell toe which remains as distinctive today as it did 50 years ago.
