Continuing their long-standing partnership, Adidas and CLOT by Edison Chen are once again delivering a remix on one of the brand’s most classic designs. Fresh off of the release of their beaded sneakers, the newest launch between this duo is all about a summer-inspired design on the heritage Stan Smith sneaker. As part of the launch, a new campaign featuring various athletic stars, including tennis legend Stan Smith and F1 driver George Russell, captures the essence of the sneaker’s traditional look while incorporating modern upgrades. Adding a seasonally apt espadrille sole to the Stan Smith design, the sneaker becomes the ultimate summer shoe, fusing a classic summer style with Adidas’ iconic casual sneaker.

While the majority of the latest silhouette takes the form of the Stan Smith sneaker, the bottom has been updated with a traditional espadrille sole. Available in two colorways, the white upper includes a cleanly deconstructed look that’s complemented by embroidered details. The second iteration features a black, deconstructed upper accented by natural jute fibers in its construction. In both versions, co-branding details from CLOT and Adidas are found on the shoe’s heel tabs. Along with these two new sneakers, the partnership also introduces a new line of apparel in classic colors of forest green, cream, and chocolate brown, which perfectly complements the collection’s overall aesthetic. The entire collection, along with the new Stan Smith designs, will be available via the Adidas CONFIRMED app on the July 12.

Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
