The rest of the collection features some more familiar faces, including the Gazelle, Adizero Adios, and Wales Bonner’s signature Karintha silhouette. The latter comes in croc-stamped leather with gold-brushed eyelets, which calls to mind the designer’s beautiful navy blue Sambas from a couple years back. On the techy Adizero Adios, Wales Bonner paired an off-white suede construction with exaggerated stitching and a royal blue interior. Rounding out the group is the Gazelle in a similar colorway to the Karintha: croc-printed leather with an off-white tongue and heel tab, plus a gum sole and a royal blue lining.
Alongside the shoes, Wales Bonner cooked up some of the sleekest Adidas apparel we’ve seen this year. There’s a blue jumper inspired by football kits, long a staple of the collaboration, plus a boldly striped sweater in tones of auburn, brown, and red. The designer’s takes on Adidas tracksuits remain as flawless as ever, with this collection adding a navy blue pinstriped short version to the canon. The true highlight of the clothes offering, however, is a leather zip-up blouson in a rich dark brown with Adidas stripes down the arms.
The fashion world is waiting with bated breath to see what Wales Bonner delivers at Hermès, with all the resources of a historic maison at her disposal. For now, though, we’re just stoked that the new gig doesn’t seem to have abated her deep love for true-blue sportswear one bit.
The Wales Bonner x Adidas Originals fall-winter 2026 collection is available now via CONFIRMED and select retailers.
