To Make This Absurdly Suave adidas Sneaker, It Took Stone Roses & Manchester United
When life gives you Stone Roses lemons, you get lemonade, a.k.a an adidas Tobacco sneaker designed in collaboration with Manchester United.
Yep, you read that right. The three-way collaboration, which includes Stone Roses, Man United, and adidas, produced this effortlessly stylish version of the everyday sneaker, complete with nods to each brand.
The brands rethink the low-soled Tobacco sneaker with velvety off-white uppers and creamy leather accents.
On the inside is where the English soccer club and rock band leave their mark.The Stone Roses album artwork covers the insoles, lemons and all. It's joined by Manchester's signature crest, which has been reworked to feature the band's song "I Wanna Be Adored."
And the Manchester United x Stone Roses x adidas collab doesn't stop at the Tobacco. The three minds have designed an entire collection together, including clothing and a ZX 600 model.
Most of the collection is now available on adidas' website. But the Tobacco sneaker is scheduled to drop on atmos Japan's website on February 5 for ￥16,500 (around $107).
The adidas Tobacco made a major comeback in 2025, reminding the sneaker world of its sporty-casual charm and good-looking colorways, now coupled with modern materials and touches.
Stone Roses and Manchester United just made it better.
