Adidas Originals and Wales Bonner have unveiled their highly anticipated Fall/Winter 2023 collection, showcasing a continuation of their successful collaborative partnership. The designer’s exploration of athletic codes is evident in this collection, presenting refined archival looks that reimagine Adidas’ rich sporting legacy.
The off-pitch styles are a highlight, featuring an elevated knit set in a sophisticated mahogany brown and football shorts in sand-colored nylon adorned with the iconic three stripes in a striking contrast. Drawing inspiration from athletic aesthetics spanning the 70s to the 90s, key pieces are crafted from lightweight nylon fabric. Notable items include a pale sky tracksuit with reflective piping and a black nylon top featuring a vivid green knit collar. It’s worth noting that all pieces are available in versatile unisex sizing.
In the footwear selection, Wales Bonner continues to push the boundaries of the Adidas Originals Samba silhouette. The collection introduces two looks with luxurious faux pony-hair uppers and gum soles—one in a bold leopard print and the other in a sophisticated light tan colorway. Another set showcases suede overlays and signature contrast stitching, adding to the collection’s diverse and stylish offerings.
Marking a departure from previous seasons, the campaign visuals for Fall/Winter 2023 shift to a refined studio setting. This change showcases the simplicity of the silhouettes against minimal backdrops, capturing a mix of models, street cast figures, and skateboarder Na-Kel Smith. The visuals embody the evocative complexity of the characters themselves, creating a compelling narrative for this collaborative collection.
