Stan Smith, Paul Smith and Manchester United team up for sneaker collab

Paul Smith and Manchester United have collaborated with adidas’ Stan Smith brand on a limited-edition sneaker.

The Smith x Smith sneaker incorporates Manchester United’s trademark colours on the lining and lace tips, with Paul Smith’s face and signature added to one of the tongues.

Elsewhere, Manchester United’s Red Devil mascot has been utilised on the heel and sole.

“It was such an honour to put our own spin on such an iconic shoe in collaboration with our longstanding tailoring partner Manchester United,’ said Paul Smith.

“It’s a trainer that I wear myself and has truly stood the test of time, earning itself a place in the history books. Spending time with the man himself and working closely with the adidas team, our shared passion for the design became clear and I’m confident we have created something that serves as a fitting tribute to the unmistakable classic.”

The drop is limited to just 1,946 pairs, with 1946 being the year both Paul and Stan Smith were born.
