On January 17 Wales Bonner will unveil its Fall Winter 2024 collection at Paris Fashion Week. Ahead of the runway, we've received our first glimpse at the latest collaboration between the English label and adidas, which includes two new and reimagined pairs of Samba sneakers.
Both labels are beginning the year with a bang, continuing a partnership which first began four years ago. The first style has neutral grey and beige uppers, with a satin sky blue inner lining. This time around, the designer has opted not to include the style's foldable tongue which was a salient feature on the previous release in November 2023. However, the tongue's perimeter include Wales Bonner's signature blanket stitch. The three stripes are deep blue and feature a croc-leather effect. To finish it off, the style includes diamond-patterned blue and brown laces.
The second style is more tonal, with biscuit-coloured suede uppers and a toffee-hued tongue. On this shoe, the stripes also have the croc-effect but arrive in white, and the laces are a washed-out version of the first. It might just be the most wearable pair of Wales Bonner Sambas yet.

Where to buy the latest Wales Bonner x adidas Samba
Since this is our first glimpse at the collaboration, and with no official confirmation, we'll have to wait a little longer to find out when the styles will become available. However, if past collaborations have taught us anything you'll be able to pick up a pair at the Wales Bonner and adidas websites – but you'll have to be quick, stocks never last long.
We imagine more information will be released following Wales Bonner's upcoming show at Paris Fashion Week. Until then, keep your eyes peeled and your nimble fingers ready to press "add to cart".
