Ever since adidas began collaborating with multi-award-winning designer Grace Wales Bonner and her self-titled fashion label in 2020, the partnership has been known for producing stylish sneakers with a classic sporting aesthetic and uniquely luxurious touches. Throughout her time with adidas, Bonner has often sought to explore her British-Jamaican heritage, and she did exactly that with her spring/summer 2023 collection, entitled Land of Wood and Water. Each item of clothing in the collection reflects an element of Jamaican culture, articulating a story about the people of the island and how their identity relates to the surrounding landscape. The resulting footwear is bold and expressive with a distinctive style that has seen it become highly sought-after amongst sneaker enthusiasts and followers of high fashion alike.

Heritage style and stunning visual effects combine on this adidas Wales Bonner Silver Samba for a modern take on the vintage classic. While the sneaker is grounded by an earthy brown sole unit whose grippy outsole tread incorporates rippling lines and geometric patterns, its eye-catching Metallic Silver upper delivers an irresistible sheen. In fact, its leather surface is so well-polished that it has a mirror-like appearance. On top of this, crocheted 3-Stripes logos adorn the flanks in the elegant shade of Cream White, and other embroidered accents establish a finely crafted aesthetic across the upper. Sophisticated dual branding then adds to the feeling of exclusivity that comes along with the Wales Bonner collaboration. Lastly, the foldover tongue hints at the Samba’s footballing history to ensure that this striking colourway honours adidas’ sporting tradition.
