Sporty & Rich x Adidas Samba collection is ready to take the sneaker world by storm. This third collaboration brings together the visionary design of Emily Oberg's Sporty & Rich brand with the iconic Adidas Samba and Stan Smith footwear. Known for transcending mere aesthetics, Sporty & Rich has evolved from a mood board to a full-fledged label.
The collection showcases a distinctive approach, with Samba and Stan Smith sneakers donning new, vibrant colorways. This collaboration revisits and revamps designs from their previous joint ventures.
Fans would love to know that Adidas Samba will be available in burgundy and marigold-accented colorways, bringing fresh energy to the classic design.
Sporty & Rich x Adidas Samba collection will be released in Winter 2023
The collection introduces the Adidas Samba in two new colorways: burgundy and marigold-accented. These vibrant accents stand out against the dominant, crisp white hue, adding a fresh and stylish twist to the classic design.
The upper of the sneakers is crafted from buttery leather, exuding a luxurious feel. In addition, the cream-colored laces and sanddrift-treated suede mudguards offer a neutral contrast, seamlessly blending elegance and sportiness.
A clad gum outsole anchors the design, providing both functionality and a visual complement to the sneaker's overall aesthetic. The cream-colored laces add a touch of sophistication and ensure a snug fit.
Each pair in the Sporty & Rich x Adidas Samba collection comes adorned with pearled hangtag charms. These subtle embellishments add a unique and luxurious touch to each sneaker.
In addition to the Samba, the collection also revisits the Stan Smith silhouette. The clad-canvas upper, reminiscent of Sporty & Rich's 2022 design, is refreshed with a bright white tint and vibrant evergreen contrasts on the heel tab and branding areas.
