Marking three decades in the streetwear game, the BAPE x adidas Stan Smith “30th Anniversary – Black” IG1116 stands out as a prime example of how collaboration and eco-friendly fashion can come together. This version of the iconic Stan Smith sneaker blends BAPE’s modern flair with adidas’ classic design, creating a shoe that pays homage to its history while breaking new ground.
The sneaker’s upper is made with a focus on the environment, using a soft synthetic material with at least 50% recycled content. This move towards sustainability is a key part of adidas’ effort to cut down on plastic waste, proving that fashion can be both stylish and responsible.
The look of the BAPE x adidas Stan Smith is subtly luxurious. Set against a black base, eye-catching metallic gold accents are strategically placed to enhance the sneaker’s design. The Stan Smith signature in gold on the midfoot and the special BAPE branding on the lace dubrae, also in gold, give the shoe an exclusive feel.
A unique touch is the replacement of the traditional Stan Smith portrait on the tongue tag with BAPE’s famous APE logo, also in gold. This change is a bold emblem of the collaboration between these two powerhouse brands. Golden BAPE branding on the heel tab and insole adds a final luxurious detail.
