The latest chapter in collaboration with adidas, this Stella take on the iconic Stan Smith sneaker uses switched-up details to renew the silhouette.

They are made from vegan leather for the first time in the sneaker’s history, while staying true to the original design. Stella stars run along the sides, replacing the three stripe, and Stella’s portrait and signature adorn the left tongue. Paying homage to Stan Smith, his face remains printed on the right sneaker.

Using non-leather materials is the cornerstone of our ethos, as part of our ongoing commitment to cruelty-free fashion. The Stella #StanSmith sneakers are available online and in stores worldwide from the 10th of September, in celebration of Stella’s birthday that week.
