The iconic adidas Stan Smith gets a fresh update through a bold partnership with Los Angeles-based brand Brain Dead. The collaboration brings four new colorways to the classic tennis shoe, fusing traditional style with avant-garde design.
Known for its unconventional approach to fashion and art, Brain Dead has put its stamp on the Stan Smith without compromising the sneaker’s timeless appeal. The redesign features chunky contrasting laces, Brain Dead’s signature “logo head” on the perforated sides and a distinctive furry fabric on the heel padding.
Available in Cream, Dark Green, Light Blue and Pink, these new Stan Smiths offer sneaker enthusiasts the chance to own a piece of sneaker history with a modern twist. The collaboration maintains the clean lines of the shoe, while introducing subtle yet impactful changes that set it apart from the original.
adidas and Brain Dead have also created a unique campaign to showcase the new designs. Artist Ryan Decker’s surreal visuals depict a tennis match filled with flying rackets and unusual objects on the court, perfectly capturing the spirit of this unconventional partnership.
Sneaker collectors and fashionistas can look forward to the limited release of the Brain Dead x adidas Stan Smith on September 7th. The shoes will be available at select adidas stores, retailers, the CONFIRMED app and the Brain Dead website.
