Iconic, versatile and present in the shoe rack of almost all of us. The Stan Smith of Adidas have been for years in the must-have of every season. We have selected for you the most original models for the summer just around the corner.
Born in the ’60s, from the innovative idea of Horst Dassler that replaced the canvas of the upper of the most popular tennis shoes with leather. Initially called adidas Robert Haillet, as the famous tennis player to which the sneakers were associated. Thanks to the player’s fame, they became popular among tennis athletes around the world. They guaranteed stability and support, in addition to the minimal and ultra-modern design.
The new name “Stan Smith” was born when the brand had to change its “ambassador”: Donald Dell, who himself suggested the name to Dassler. In the 80s the Stan Smith, with the inclusion of new technologies in sportwear, begin to be less widespread among the tennis courts but increase exponentially between the streets of the city. Comfortable, suitable for everyone and perfect for any look, more than 40 years of success that we are sure is destined to last for much longer.
Today the classic model, still very popular, is transformed from season to season, with different materials and patterns and colors. With summer just around the corner we have selected the most fun, fresh and original models to wear on any occasion, all united by a single purpose: to save the planet.
