Matt Varga UPDATE: The KITH x adidas Samba “Denim” just launched online HERE while supplies last.
There’s never a break in the KITH newswire. After teaming up with Salomon and with New Balance for brand new silhouettes, with Nike for a Knicks-centric Air Max 95, and with plenty of non-footwear brands for their always-enticing Monday Program, the brand is looking to one of their more steadfast partners as a KITH x adidas Samba in denim steps into the fray.
Much of what we’ve seen in recent years from the German giant and Ronnie Fieg’s label has come under the 8th Street label, a shared sub-label from KITH and Clarks that frequently brought the Three Stripes into the mix for hybrid formulations. This pair lands in the lineage of the Messi adidas collection that celebrated the Argentine legend, an effort between just adi and the NYC mainstay.
Carrying the torch from Fall 2025’s adidas Supernova, the Samba suits up in two dueling denim applications. Atop a steadfast gum sole, bleach white denim handles the wraparound quarter panelling, flanked by more traditional light blue on the heel cup, tongue, eye-stays, and T-toe. To ensure that the collab energy isn’t lost, KITH script sits in gilded embroidery where we’d typically see “Samba” emblazoned.
Given that this pair was revealed via the KITH Fall 2026 lookbook, a collection that’s already rolling out, release info for the KITH x adidas Samba “Denim” shouldn’t be too far off. Catch teaser shots embedded below.
