adidas Japan Wales Bonner Bruin

In a masterclass of archival research and luxury craftsmanship, the adidas Japan Wales Bonner Cream reinvents a rare 1980s racing silhouette. The upper is a sophisticated mix of Cream White/Easy Yellow/Dark Brown leather and suede, detailed with crocheted Three Stripes—a signature of the Wales Bonner collaboration. Released on February 19, 2022, for $180, it features a slim, low-profile midsole for a vintage track-inspired feel. Our experts highlight the hand-stitched details and the satin lining, which transform a minimalist sport shoe into a refined piece of designer storytelling.
