adidas teams up with Chinese designer Dingyun Zhang to bring a fresh take on the iconic Samba, with the “White Vapour” edition. Known for his forward-thinking design and street culture influences, Zhang reworks this football-inspired silhouette in a distinctive way.
This version of the Samba comes with a padded, puffy look, wrapped in soft shorthair cow suede. The White Vapour colour, paired with subtle Grey One accents, gives the shoe a clean yet striking appearance. Zhang’s signature elongated tongue adds a bold feature that complements the overall design.
Despite its modern updates, the “White Vapour” stays rooted in the Samba’s football heritage. A soft terry lining ensures comfort, while the rubber outsole provides reliable grip and durability for everyday use. Zhang blends futuristic inspiration with a nod to the past, giving the Samba a refreshed look while keeping its classic essence.
The Dingyun Zhang x adidas Samba “White Vapour” brings together innovation and heritage, making it an eye-catching and practical option for those seeking something unique. This collaboration pushes the familiar Samba in a new direction, while still respecting its legacy.
