adidas Stan Smith

Originally labelled the "Haillet", after French tennis pro Robert Haillet in 1965, the sneaker was not renamed after tennis legend Stan Smith until 1978. Quickly becoming a favourite amongst top tier tennis players, with a premium leather upper providing more support, the green foam padding was added to the design in the late 60's for increased achilles protection; and herringbone sole made it perfectly suited for clay courts. As sneaker technology advanced in the 1980's, the Stan Smith slowly lost it's on-court mystique and it's reign of popularity in the lifestyle category as a fashionable sneaker grew immensely. With tens of millions of pairs sold since it's introduction, the Stan Smith has grown to become a staple sneaker in any wardrobe, with it's undeniable versatility and crisp minimalist design.
