CLOT Bring Beaded Detailing to the adidas Stan Smith
Released in the early 1960s, the has been the go-to canvas for reinterpretation over the years, with designers like , and all bringing something new to its clean, understated design. It’s a model that quietly invites experimentation, making it the perfect foundation for thoughtful modification.
That’s where comes in. Since linking with the Three Stripes as part of a major partnership in 2023, the Hong Kong brand has been steadily building a catalogue of considered reworks: breathing new life into the Superstar and Gazelle through unexpected materials and cultural cues. After giving the latter an Espadrille-inspired refresh, its attention now turns to the Stan Smith, reworking the classic with the same easygoing summer spirit.
Clean and lowkey from the get-go, the colab offers a fresh spin on the classic without straying too far from its roots. A white and dark navy colourway sets the tone, paired with a semi-traditional build. The brand's signature heel tab also gets an update – stripped of branding and finished with beaded detailing – while soft hits of black, blue and white at the back round things out with a delicate finish.
