In the realm of athletic footwear, Stan Smiths are legendary, and now they have an iconic Man United twist. For the Autumn/Winter 2022 campaign, Paul Smith collaborated with adidas and the team to create a special Stan Smith edition.
The premium cloud white leather sneakers preserve their recognisable tennis-style shape. The insole, bottom of the tongue, and lace-ends all sport the team’s red, white, and grey colour scheme, along with United’s recognisable Red Devil insignia, which is featured on the heel tab.
The partnership honours Paul Smith and United’s long-standing friendship by making Paul Smith the club’s official tailor and providing the teams with stylish uniforms on game days.
Sir Paul Smith discussed the partnership in his remarks: “It was a true honour to work with our dependable tuxedo partner Manchester United to reinvent such a classic shoe. It is a trainer that I personally wear and has stood the test of time, securing its place in history.”
These are a limited-edition run, so act quickly if you want to get your hands on them. To honour the years that Stan Smith and Sir Paul Smith were born, Paul Smith is only producing 1946 pairs of shoes worldwide. Undoubtedly, fans of United will adore these simple, elegant white sneakers.
