Vice Golf has teamed up with adidas to launch the Stan Smith Golf shoe, a new silhouette influenced by Vice's iconic speckled golf balls. The new sneaker arrives as a follow-up to the two brands' previous collobaratiton, the Vice Golf Shoe by adidas, which became an instant classic in 2020.
However, unlike the first collab, the Stan Smith Golf shoe comes in three eye-popping colorways -- Signal Green, Solar Red, and White Tint. In addition, it features branding elements from both labels including adidas' signature Three Stripes and the Vice Golf logo.
“Combining the tradition and class of adidas’ Stan Smith shoe with our hidden and less-hidden design elements was incredibly fun!” said the CEO and Founder of Vice Golf, Ingo Duellman. “It’s a shoe to wear from early in the morning to late at night, on the golf course, at the bar, or wherever.”
