Stride in Style: Culture and Sport for Wales Bonner x adidas Originals

In 2014, Grace Wales Bonner launched the eponymous award-winning label Wales Bonner, where diversity and cultural exploration are at the forefront. With impeccable tailoring, the men’s clothing label quickly evolved into an offering for women, too.

From the Adidas archive, Adidas Originals was born in 2001 and constantly reinvented the brand’s heritage. Inspired by sports and contemporary youth culture, it champions the iconic Trefoil logo. Leading the streetwear scene, it’s the go-to sportswear brand for creative influencers and trendsetters alike.

The iconic Samba silhouette is getting a fresh interpretation in 2023 thanks to the collaboration between Wales Bonner and Adidas Originals. The Samba silhouette is approved by many celebrities and streetwear names, including Pharrell Williams, Sporty & Rich, Ronnie Fieg, Austin Butler, Brad Pitt, and Harry Styles.

The collection’s apparel is inspired by vintage sportswear aesthetic and Adidas’ iconic Three Stripes, blending sportswear with elevated design codes and paying homage to Jamaican sports style, where Wales Bonner’s retro allure meets Adidas’ revered craftsmanship. The collection brings elegance to archival football silhouettes and represents free-spirited expression.

Our picks? With a classic fit and ribbed crewneck, the statement graphic tee is versatile, easy to wear, and can be paired with anything. For a look that’s both timeless and trendsetting, team it with the samba sneakers, crafted from calf leather and featuring whipstitch and eyelet details.

Featuring an embroidered logo, iconic 3-stripes, and a handy zip-fastening pocket ensemble for ultimate comfort and street-chic vibes, the Adidas x Wales Bonner track pants are perfect for any urban adventure.
