A study in presence and character, this season, athletic codes are retold through elegant tailoring as Wales Bonner reconceptualizes adidas’ signature DNA. From blousons and jackets to tracksuits and jerseys, each apparel piece is both considered and expressive. Turning to accessories, and drawing on adidas’ timeless codes, a duo of leather bowling bags take center stage – transforming historical sporting aesthetics into sculptural forms.
Adidas Originals and Wales Bonner’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection blends sporting heritage with cultural craftsmanship through refined tailoring and expressive design.
The line features elegant apparel, sculptural leather bags, and reimagined classics like the WB Karintha Lo in satin.
The campaign, shot by Chris Rhodes, captures authentic, individual character and creative spirit.
Continuing to advance the collaboration’s established design language, the instantly iconic WB Karintha Lo returns for its third iteration in satin further stretching the possibilities of what an adidas shoe can be and do. Essential in suede, exquisite in sequin, and now shining in satin, the journey of the Karintha continues to unfold.
The Fall/Winter 2025 footwear support cast also plays host to a number of reimagined Trefoil classics – including the WB Japan presented in a lavender tone. A leftfield choice, until you consider that the calming soft purple hue has historically been associated with serenity and purity. The WB Superstar grounds the collaboration back into iconic sports heritage through a crafted perspective, while the WB Adilette is elevated by a considered human touch.
A study in presence and character, the collection is accompanied by a campaign shot by Chris Rhodes and starring an eclectic ensemble of characters. Championing a new wave of counter-cultural energy, the portraits deftly weave together personal narratives from Gene Gallagher, Alva Claire, Shim Mheuka, and Bebe Parnell. Authentic, raw, and undeniably individual, every image brings new meaning into each piece in the collection.
