Michael Le Leaning on the greats — with a little assist from the Beastie Boys as well — adidas Skateboarding is tapping renowned icon Fucking Awesome for its latest capsule of Stan Smiths, giving the signature tennis silhouette a destructive facelift true to the aesthetics of the skate label. Offered up in two variations, orange and deep purple, the Three Stripes are seemingly unrepresented at first glance as the branded perforations that usually rest at the sides are entirely foregone in favor of the vandalistic “FUCKING AWESOME” logo in striking bronze dazzle. Tonal on both, aside from their start black midsoles and matching eyelets, much of the outward construction follows its tone of choice, making for a simple yet fitting addition to the line-up’s beginnings. Grab a detailed look at both right here, and if you’re looking to pick a set up for yourself, there will be limited amounts available at a one day gallery event in both Harajuku and Paris on September 14th. The collection will then release at the LA store on September 21st as well as on their online shop at 6PM PT.
Updated September 18th, 2019: The Fucking Awesome x adidas Stan Smith is revealed in four colorways.
