A Closer Look at the New Wales Bonner x adidas Originals Footwear
Four new classics for fall.
adidas Originals and Wales Bonner have reunited for Fall/Winter 2026, diving deep into the designer’s archive with the brand to explore the dialogue between athletic heritage and luxury. Marking an ongoing evolution of their partnership, this season’s footwear rotation romantically reinterprets iconic Three Stripes silhouettes through decadent textures, jewel tones and bespoke craftsmanship.
Taking center stage is the WB Karintha, which receives a distinct tailoring-inspired makeover. The sleek silhouette arrives clad in dark brown stamped crocodile leather, anchored by brushed gold eyelets. Continuing the reptilian motifs, the beloved WB Gazelle Snake is rendered in an eye-catching green crocodile-stamped leather upper, balancing archival sports DNA with a touch of fashionable flair.
The collection also turns its gaze to track culture and running with the WB ADIZERO Adios Suede. Recontextualizing the high performance running shoe for everyday styling, the pair is reworked with a velvety, fully suede upper and custom craft-inspired Three Stripes detailing. Rounding out the footwear lineup is the debut of the WB BW Pony. The minimalist silhouette receives its most expressive treatment yet, layering plush pony hair uppers alongside contrasting stamped lizard print leather overlays.
The adidas Originals by Wales Bonner FW26 collection is available to purchase now on the adidas website and select retailers.
