The latest collaboration from adidas Originals and Wales Bonner is upon us. This time they have teamed up for a fall/winter collection. This collection pays tribute to the roots of hip-hop culture, and you can clearly see that in the sporty looks that have been redesigned in a fresh, creative way.
Wales Bonner x adidas Originals Fall/Winter collection 2024
As we have come to expect from Wales Bonner, the focus is on reshaping familiar adidas models. This season, the Samba gets an upgrade with crocodile print on the leather, a woven tongue, and thick stitching on the heel. The silhouette will start dropping in two colorways: warm browns and dark blues. This gives the classic model a somewhat exotic edge, which we all love.
For a sportier look, the Samba Millenium returns, in color combinations such as silver with brown and mustard yellow with navy blue. But the real showstopper is the reissue of the adidas Superstar. This one has been redesigned by Bonner with crocodile leather, patent leather stripes and a satin lining. This gives the Superstar a luxurious, yet bold look that perfectly complements the rest of the collection.
In addition to the sneakers, there is also a clothing line that gives a nod to the 1970s, a time closely associated with the rise of hip-hop. Think tracksuits in bright colors, floral prints on tank tops and shorts, and oversized T-shirts with a large adidas logo. Everything is captured in a campaign shot in Harlem, New York, a perfect setting for this ode to hip-hop.
The adidas Originals x Wales Bonner FW24 collection will be available worldwide starting October 24, 2024, at 10 a.m. ET via adidas, the CONFIRMED app, and at select retailers.
Keep in mind that you have to invest a bit, as the cheapest sneaker costs €250. But that comes with the luxurious quality you've come to expect from Bonner.
