The adidas Stan Smith Is Receiving Some PrimeKnit Treatment

Most known for its simple white leather upper, the iconic Stan Smith model is undergoing some major construction changes.

After a grand return at the start of the year for one of adidas Originals' most iconic models, the Stan Smith is now starting to not only be spun in different colorways and collaborations, but also in different materials altogether, like this upcoming Primeknit version. 

A fully knitted construction that includes varying depths and gauges for each panel, the silhouette's heel sees the most design adjustments, with the subtle midfoot stripe branding still slightly noticeable through longer strands of fabric peering through.

Stay tuned as we receive more info about a stateside launch, as they are only available so far throughout parts of Asia, like Taiwanese shop Invincible.
