Now a key adidas partner for over half a decade, Grace Wales Bonner is set to step back into the spotlight with a strong slate of new footwear for Summer 2026. Joining the Wales Bonner adidas Predator are multiple fresh takes on the Gazelle Indoor and Karintha silhouettes, shaping up as one of her most compelling seasonal lineups in recent memory.
The height of Bonner’s adidas partnership (so far) saw the designer lean heavily on animal prints, headlined by croc and fur executions of the quintessential Samba, a model she deserves credit for helping popularize. The last few seasons have shifted toward new directions, with more focus on suede, satin, and sequins. Summer 2026 sees the British designer return to familiar territory, at least with the upcoming Gazelle Indoor styles.
First up is a brown leather pair featuring a snakeskin base, striking an effortless balance between luxury and sport. Behind it comes a dark brown pony hair look with off-white stripes and rope laces, complete with subtle croc texturing on the tongue and backtab. The other half of the collection centers on the adidas Karintha, a key player in Bonner’s 2025 run once again finding a place in the rotation. Black and white leather styles are included, both featuring brown toe caps, blue interiors, and rope laces.
Last year’s Wales Bonner Spring/Summer 2026 preview also teased new Country, Adizero Adios, and additional Karintha styles, but only these four have surfaced via official images so far. Scroll through the full image galleries below and keep our Sneaker Release Dates page handy for updates.
