While Adidas has worked with plenty of brands, designers, and celebrities in recent seasons, their collaboration with Sporty & Rich remains one of their most reliable partnerships. The pair has continuously released prep-inspired styles and collections in recent seasons that have grown this partnership into the brand’s most luxurious and elevated collection. This time around, the duo has turned to the Samba sneaker for a new iteration that’s perfect for those looking for a balance between a casual sneaker and a luxe pick. While Adidas and Sporty & Rich have previously collaborated on a Samba iteration, this release keeps things classic and straightforward, making for the perfect timeless option. 

Adidas and Sporty & Rich bring preppy vibes to the Samba

Staying faithful to the Samba’s original silhouette, the latest collaborative sneaker from Adidas and Sporty & Rich sees small changes that deliver maximum style. Crafted in a crisp white upper, the Samba gets remixed with hints of green and navy blue. Off-white suede overlays on the toe and heel add another neutral hue to the mix and a new texture to contrast. The Three Stripes design appears in a ribbon-style, adding a unique and preppy detail to the sneaker. Sporty & Rich branding appears in gold foil along the lateral side, as well as on the tongue in the same rich green hue. Balancing Adidas’ athletic branding, Sporty & Rich’s restrained preppy style manages to fuse both worlds with ease. While Adidas and Sporty & Rich have not confirmed an official launch date or retail price, fans can expect the design to hit stores near the end of the summer season.

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:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

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.
