adidas is launching a new festive iteration of its classic ‘Stan Smith’ silhouette, evoking a sense of the Christmas spirit in its customer base. The model's foundation is a white, smooth leather made from 50% recyclable materials. With large Stan Smith shoes and a branded Santa hat, the adidas Trefoil insignia is seen on the cream-colored heel tabs in a red holiday shade. The pair is finished with modest off-white sole components and adidas classic branding on the heel drop.
The sneaker is wrapped with red-tinted synthetic leather liners so that it matches perfectly with your holiday ensemble. The Christmas iteration of the ‘Stan Smith’ silhouette is now available on the adidas website and select retailers for $90 USD.
