adidas Perfected (& Lux'd Up) Its Most Minimalist Sneaker
As adidas' most minimalist sneaker, the iconic Stan Smith has already mastered the art of "less is more." Now, it's even more, well, minimal.
It's extra luxe, too.
The newest adidas Stan Smith Lux arrives as the finest version of the model. The sportswear brand has stripped down the classic model to even simpler tonal schemes and wrapped it in premium crackled leather for a thoughtful, aged feel.
The results? Basically, the perfect Stan Smith sneaker.
That's not to say the previous Stan Smith Lux sneakers weren't good; they were very nice. But the latest really hits the nail on the head, quietly elevating the model's traditionally minimalist design.
Really, adidas has been building an army of low-key luxe Stans, including super flat-soled versions and Stan Smith "dress shoes."
adidas offers its vintage-inspired Stan Smith Lux in "Grey Four" and "Brown Desert" colorways. The brown Stans are currently up for grabs on adidas Japan's website for ¥19,800 (around $127).
