The adidas Stan Smith shoe first saw the light of day in 1973, originally designed for a tennis star named, unsurprisingly, Stan Smith. Since then, they have successfully stood the test of time and today come in men's and women's versions and a variety of designs as the iconic low-cut sneaker. The clean design of the adidas Stan Smith is completed by 3 stripes. The result of years of refinement combined with the preservation of tradition is an even simpler and sleeker line that has created some of the most popular adidas sneakers in history.

Thanks to its origins, the adidas Stan Smith shoe initially dominated the tennis courts. Exceptionally, you'll still find them there today, but more than anywhere else, they're now found on city streets as part of everyday outfits. The wide range of styles is partly to blame - men's, and conversely, purely women's adidas Stan Smiths are just the former commonplace. In fact, these legendary sneakers have also become the basis for various collaborations with artists, including a recent collaboration with Human Made.

So get yourself these ideal white summer sneakers, get yourself a legacy of a sporting legend in the form of adidas Stan Smith.
