It seems that adidas [Originals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superstar-ii-japan) has been observing the rise of loungewear in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic because the brand just debuted new Stan Smith Slip-On sneakers.

Stan Smith is one of the [adidas'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taekwondo-shoes) most popular sneaker silhouettes and now the iconic shoe has been transformed into a mule. The new Stan Smith Slip-On shoes retain most of the sneakers' signature look such as a smooth leather upper, the iconic Three Stripes perforations on the sides, and the bold adidas logo on the tongue. Of course, the main difference with the new shoes is that the back is completely missing. This allows consumers to slip the shoes on and off with ease, just like a pair of slippers.

Available in 'Tribe Yellow' and 'Cloud White' hues, the new Stan Smith Slip-On sneakers are an innovative take on a classic shoe.
