Adidas Originals x Wales Bonner SL72Adidas Consortium

Description

Old school adidas models are having a bit of a moment if you haven’t already noticed, fuelling the retro resurgence. From the Samba to the Gazelle (now with must-have status), nostalgic kicks have been given a new lease of life - all thanks to collaborations with designers like Wales Bonner. The duo signalled a new era in 2020 with statement sneakers that we all added to our baskets immediately. Now, the moment we’ve all been waiting for is here. The British designer teams up again with adidas Consortium on this rendition of the SL72 Knit and it's arguably the most impressive yet. If you cop a pair, they will without a doubt make everyone green with envy. Retaining its ‘Super Light” weight and athletic silhouette, nylon is swapped out for mesh with hemp-like chunky stitch-work tracing the contrast leather heel, tongue and sunsoaked golden yellow Three-Stripes - a colour palette that nod to Wales Bonner's Caribbean heritage and the home-spun feel that weaves its way through Bonner’s designs. Set your alarm. You won’t want to snooze this one. Mesh Uppers Suede & Leather Overlays Rubber Outsole Style Code: IG0571
