Matt Varga Even in lulls before their fully realized collections, Wales Bonner is a name that’s never too far off our tongues. Look to the prevailing dominance of animal print Sambas for proof — no doubt a windfall that the Three Stripes can thank Grace Wales Bonner and her eponymous label for helping kickstart. Now years into their partnership with the German giant, Wales Bonner is spreading into new aesthetic territory and making their signature model a coveted piece, unveiling the Fall/Winter range for the partnership.
In case you missed its debut earlier in May, the signature silhouette we’re referencing is the adidas Karintha, delivering the titular two textiles alluded to in our title. Utilizing a loose upper build and a sectioned, slim sole, the feminine hallmarks of Wales Bonner are all over this shoe, especially evident in the material makeups on tap. While the sequined composition shown here in brown is no surprise for studied Bonner-ists, what is novel is the silk one, utilized for a black and a blue application in this capsule.
Though those are the pairs that headline this collection, the storied partners aren’t limited to Karintha for this release. Indeed, the Japan Lo — a trendy shoe in and of itself — delivers a lilac and burgundy blend, while an adidas Adilette Slide in black, navy, and red rounds out the offering.
While the full suite of official images allows us a complete sense of what to expect, concrete release details are harder to come by. Expect the adidas x Wales Bonner Fall/Winter 2025 collection (fittingly) due out before 2025 closes. Retail pricing is similarly opaque, but know that the Karintha clocked in at $250 in its initial release.
