Brain Dead Unveils More adidas Stan Smith Colourways

Continuing to fly the flag for unconventional sneakers with a twist, the newcomer partnership that is Brain Dead x adidas is building on the hype surrounding their initial, unstructured Stan Smith with four new colourways of an icon reimagined.

adidas is the current player in a long line of shoe companies that Fairfaxian streetwear brand Brain Dead has worked with, achieving levels of success with their debut Bowling Shoe project equal to that of Brain Dead’s previous sneaker collabs with the likes of Vans, Asics and Reebok - not forgetting the stellar job Brain Dead is doing with the Oakley Factory Team.

For its latest creation with adidas, Brain Dead is sticking within the same time period that birthed its intial Bowling Shoe project, back when sportswear was largely still reserved for sports and Tennis legend Stan Smith had just become the face of the now iconic silhouette.

Not playing around too much with the Stan Smith’s classic shape, Brain Dead’s irreverent touch comes into play through slight design tweaks that inject the timeless model with inimitable Brain Dead flair.

The shoe will be available in palettes of tan, dark green, soft blue and pink, with each model sporting contrasting lace work and grass-like heel counters that aim to mimic the freshly cut lawns of Wimbledon. Replacing the typical perforated three-stripes is an outline of Brain Dead’s ’head’ logo, with more finishing touches on the tongue and branded aglets.

Releasing in limited quantities, the Brain Dead x adidas Stan Smith will drop on September 7th via selected adidas stores and wearebraindead.com.
