Matt Varga Few retailers in London are as storied as Liberty. Founded in 1875, the luxury department store has been a staple of the West End for decades upon decades. In a true worlds collide moment, the high-end store is colliding with an equal UK icon, the Three Stripes to kick off 2025, unveiling the Liberty adidas collection including the Gazelle and Stan Smith.
Vintage floral prints have been a staple of the brand for as long as they’ve been around, a centered motif so strong that they’ve maintained an in-house florist in that same flagship. The decision to clad Three Stripes staples in that same flora is thus natural, resulting in some spring-ready fare as we look to warmer weather. The adidas Gazelle in question is the truest execution of that, planting off-white on the throat of the shoe, a gum bottom and midsole underfoot, and a kaleidoscopic arrangment of vintage florals on the upper. The kids receive an adidas Stan Smith that takes things into a calmer direction, adorning a base of navy with similar yet more understated flower motifs.
In addition to the two styles here, the collection will also reportedly include the platformed adidas Gazelle Bold, the Campus 00, and the Country OG. Expect a co-branded apparel collection to arrive alongside, as well. Look for all of these pairs via typical adidas channels on January 10th, and stay tuned via our Sneaker Release Dates hub for official materials and retail pricing
