The adidas Stan Smith is such a popular sneaker because of its simplicity, classic design, and overall affordability. When adidas Originals resurrected the model all the way back in 2013, it was apparent that the white and green synthetic leather staple would be a go-to for the years to come. adidas Originals has since updated the model with Primeknit, Boost, and the new Primeknit x Boost option together for a modernized look that went full circle, but this take by adidas Y-3 has to be the furthest a reenvisioning has gone given the angular update, additional zippers, and near $400 pricepoint. Yup, that’s an adidas Stan Smith model for around $400 USD. The Y-3 Stan Smith Zip features a removable lacing system thanks to the zipper, authentic leather throughout, and an updated heel plate with a new angular design and ‘Y-3’ branding just in case you thought this crazy edition wasn’t from Yohji Yamamoto and company. You can grab your pair today from Livestock CA.
