Adidas Stan Smith available on adidas.com
Although sneaker heads and the fashion flock may share a devotion to the idea of the latest and greatest, the Stan Smith is changing all of that. The 1973 Adidas original, named for tennis pros, has gotten a relaunch from the brand this past January and trainer lovers and style setters have converged on this particular old school style.
A sentiment long embraced by the street-style set, editors, and even Phoebe Philo sported a pair at her spring 2011 show. This fusion of sport and high fashion continues during the Couture collections, where both Raf Simons' and Karl Lagerfeld have featured minimalist sneakers on the runway.
