The Saga Continues.
Since their first collaboration hit the runway in 2020, the duo has redefined sportswear and sneakers, with the British-Jamaican designer’s touch catapulting classic silhouettes like the Samba and Superstar into a new realm of global desire. Her collections have consistently merged 1970s subcultures, Caribbean youth aesthetics, and meticulous tailoring. Creating cult classics that blend athletic function with high-fashion narrative, often featuring distinguishing details like hand-crocheted stripes and a rich sense of cultural storytelling. Now, the saga continues as adidas Originals and Wales Bonner unveil their Fall/Winter 2025 collection.
The new collection is articulated as “a study in presence and character,” a statement realized by reconceptualizing adidas’ signature athletic codes through a lens of elegant tailoring. Wales Bonner pushes the conversation between sporting legacy and cultural heritage, focusing intensely on craft and materiality. This perspective transforms traditional sportswear pieces: from blousons and jackets to tracksuits, jerseys and even bowling bags into statement looks, surely taking all over our moodboards.
At the heart of the footwear is the WB Karintha Lo, returning for its third iteration, this time in a shimmering satin finish, marking a continued effort to stretch the very possibilities of the adidas shoe. Joining this evolving icon is a support cast of reimagined Trefoil classics: the WB Japan sneaker, unexpectedly presented in a calming, soft lavender tone, a leftfield choice that links to historical notions of serenity and purity. Completing the line are the WB Superstar, which grounds the collection in iconic sports heritage with a crafted perspective, and the WB Adilette silhouette.
The collaboration will be available globally on 31st October at adidas.com, via Confirmed, and through select retailers.
