Wales Bonner's Next Great adidas Sneaker Is a Lush Suede Stepper
The love between adidas and Wales Bonner is quite mutual. The London-based eponymous brand loves making adidas shoes, as much as adidas loves making Wales Bonner shoes.
After several Wales-flavored general releases, Wales Bonner and adidas are back with a new collaboration that's not only Samba-free but also includes their first high-top sneaker together.
For years, the collaboration has blessed us with low-top adidas models, spun with reptilian skins and even silver chromed-out looks. For the Spring/Summer 2025 season, however, the two minds offer up a collaborative Superstar Hi.
The high-top Superstar sneaker comes wrapped in this super smooth suede (also likely very high-quality), rendered in brown and grey shades.
It's a very minimal take on the Superstar Hi, which is usually called the Pro Model. The Three Stripes are simply holes on the side instead of the normal leather strips. Branding moments shine in gold but are still relatively quiet. And, of course, the iconic shell toe is present on this collaborative pair.
The Wales Bonner x adidas Superstar Hi sneaker is part of a wider collection, which also includes a woven Adilette slide and the Karintha Lo model. We initially thought the Karintha was a new kind of Samba, but it turns out this sparkly sequined sneaker is a fresh, flat-soled model.
After appearing on the runways earlier this year, the latest Wales Bonner x adidas collection is expected to drop at adidas and retailers like Highsnobiety Shop during the warmer season.
With these official images in view, maybe we'll catch these luxe steppers, the suede Superstars included, very soon.
