Late last year, adidas created a version of the Stan Smith equipped with a bigger/chunkier sole unit known as the Stan Smith Bold. Made for the ladies, this new iteration of the Stan Smith helped give the she a brand new look and vibe. Now adidas plans on doing the same thing on another one of their classics, the adidas Originals Superstar.

Dubbed the adidas Originals Superstar Bold, this model undergoes the same type of transformation as a tonal leather upper in Black or White are paired up with White rubber shell toes. The classic look of the upper is the complimented by the new chunkier midsole seen down low. What you end up getting is a women’s silhouette with a little bit of a platform design to them. If you’re a fan of this look, the ladies can now begin finding these at select international retailers for $120.

The warm weather is practically right around the corner (depending on where you live it may already be here) and the Stan Smith Primeknit is a sneaker that you’ll be seeing A LOT of this year.

Substituting the traditional leather construction on the upper for Primeknit, this version of the Stan Smith automatically becomes lighter and much more breathable. One of the colorways offered this Spring is this pair above which comes covered in white on the entire Primeknit upper, laces, inner liner, and sole unit, with subtle pops of red on the heel tab (which is also Primeknit) and the signature Stan Smith branding on the tongue. Wanna cop? You can do so now at select three stripes retailers for $110.

EQT does away with the bulls**t. That was the ethos of then-Creative Director Peter Moore, who wanted to shift the mindset of the brand during the early 90s. Seemingly overwhelmed by the styles and trends of the era, adidas went back to the drawing board to redesign, rebuild, and reclaim what was once theirs. They focused on the athlete and their needs and kept everything that was needed in order for them succeed and stripped away all that was superfluous to the end product.

Two decades later, adidas’ latest renaissance has them sitting in the same position. Let down and left behind by the competition, adidas Originals turned to their heritage to give them a glimpse into the future. EQT became one of the many pillars that led to the three stripes turning things around, which includes some brands you recognize like Yeezy and Boost.

So to celebrate the EQT line, Originals flew us out to Portland to check out all things EQT. Along with many of the biggest sneaker boutiques in the game today, we saw the latest happenings inside adidas, including the new Maker Lab, the future of EQT, and a performance featuring none other than Anderson .Paak. Oh, and Voodoo Donuts because that’s awesome…

Tired of the same old Ultra Boosts? Of course not. But just in case you wanted to add some diversity to your ever growing Boost collection, the three stripes just got an upgrade from the folks over at Porsche Design with what could be their most simple silhouette to date: the adidas Travel Tourer Boost. The pair features that full-length midsole unit from the Ultra Boost series, but gets a simple yet sleek upgrade through a mesh upper that looks almost snakeskin in origin thanks to the variations of tan throughout. A premium leather tongue adds ‘Porsche Design Sport’ branding to match the off-white colored laces. What do you think of Porsche Design’s latest Boost creation? Check out more detailed shots below and know that you can grab your pair today from Hanon and in the near future on adidas.com.
