Paul Smith, together with German sportswear brand Adidas and British football club Manchester United, is releasing a limited-edition rendition of the iconic, timeless Stan Smith sneaker.
This collaboration, unveiled for the Fall/Winter 2022 season, pays tribute to Paul Smith's longstanding partnership with Manchester United, the club's official tailoring partner, and pays enduring homage to Paul Smith's classic designs.
The sneaker design pays homage to the original tennis shoe released in 1965, while adding Paul Smith's witty twist. Crafted from premium white leather, the sneaker features an embossed Stan Smith logo on the right tongue and Paul Smith's portrait and signature on the left tongue. Additionally, the heel tab features Manchester United's iconic "Red Devils" logo, while the insole, underside of the tongue, and the ends of the shoelaces feature stripes in the team's colors of red, white, and gray.
The Stan Smith "Smith + Smith" Limited Edition will be released in Japan in a limited run of 1,946 pairs, in honor of 1946, the year Stan Smith and Paul Smith were born. The Stan Smith "Smith + Smith" Limited Edition (28,600 yen including tax) will be available in Japan from October 1, 2022, at the Paul Smith official online shop, Ginza store, Osaka store, and Marunouchi store.
