[adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-and-wales-bonner) continues to work closely with British designer Wales Bonner on a new full collection. The two first linked back in 2020 and have been paving a strong path in terms of their partnership. Having launched four upcoming colorway palettes, the two are releasing a look at a full collection designed for the Fall/Winter 2023 season.

[Diving into the archives of adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martine-rose-and-napapijr), the vintage looks are reinterpreted in a new lens that can be seamlessly adopted by today's society. There is a strong sense of neutral hues that nod to the 70s and 90s from an athletic angle. The palette features grey, cream, and brown, kicking off with [velour tracksuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/song-for-the-mute-adidas) defined by co-branding accents of both contributing efforts.
