adidas' sustainable Stan Smiths arrive with Earth-inspired doodles, offering the conscious consumer a stylish way to put their activism on display. A few months ago, the footwear giant confirmed that its Stan Smith silhouettes would be made from vegan materials. This eco-friendly announcement was followed by other nature-inspired designs, like the Kermit the Frog collection.
Now, this animated look is sure to appeal to those looking for a statement shoe. The playful graphics arrive in bright hues, and feature motifs like raindrops, flowers, a globe and more. Fans of the brand will also notice the unique hand-drawn trefoil logo, offering something completely different from the brand.
The shoes retail for approximately $116 USD in stores.
